Viet Nam self-tour of 08.1.18 ~ 1.21

18, proceeding to Viet Nam.

Friday, Alice a half-day class, a bit about carrying a new buy is pushing into hog backpack went to the airport.

Sylvia didn't let me buy capacity large backpack, I start from the start all the way to torture my bag, and put everything worked like a day (including Beijing brought down jacket) to pressure, it is still relatively fickle didn't stop strike. Do not know how stuff Sylvia to her little bag. Later discovered that in fact still a lever box is better, because in the meantime go many times, baggage in the baggage compartment of the vehicle below, its even dirty incomparable to the body back twice to carry luggage for hotel.

Office of Viet Nam visa is easy, fill in the table attached photos, passports and 350 Yuan, to Viet Nam Embassy 5 business days to get back.

15 points more aircraft flew three and a half hours, local time is 19 o'clock we take more aircraft to Hanoi, Viet Nam time than Beijing late an hour.

Sylvia booked in advance online hotel and the airport, turn the driver $ 12, 40 minutes later we arrived at the Hanoi hotel of Democracy. Because of the room and go to the issue of the Bodega hotel, anyway, is the brother unit. The hotel is small, but still clean, hotel boss is also very eager to help us bring dollars into Viet Nam shield, gave us a detailed explanation of routes, and in the hotel up to the next station of the train and bus tickets behind the Open.

Viet Nam people many will speak English and rarely speak Chinese, tours, must take an English good friends Oh.

Viet Nam shield denomination better, 1 RMB almost equivalent to 1800 shield, 1 dollar 16000 shield (however to the South of the city, many parts of the shield, I might as well 15000 in a suitable place to exchange some shield holding, or save when no shield and pay $ found shields, crazy). Viet Nam and the shield your dollars, u.s. dollars can't find shield occurred from time to time, be it huntianheidi. The next day I only slightly on the point of feeling, when converted into RMB to remove three zero, dividing by 2, plus some money. Conversion of dollars I haven't understood, to cut cell phone use calculator.

In a nearby more liveable cafes eat meals and small shop around a bit.

Go back to sleep.

19, Hanoi, the capital of water frosty (Ha Noi).

A bit of drizzle in the morning, the weather is cool and cold, wearing a three-piece suit two pants still felt a little cold.

The hotel has a free breakfast is, of course, the bread eggs milk coffee. Taxi 99 million guilders to Ho Chi Minh Memorial Hall, the road is not very far away almost spent 50 Yuan, Viet Nam a taxi is not cheap. Bigger backpacks exist outside the door, over the last several road crossing, keep the camera and video camera, was asked to go into a straight line, a batch of a batch into the Ho Chi Minh Memorial Hall. We begin with this batch was a father with three or four-year-old clothes daughter into the darkness of silence of the Memorial. And the Chairman Mao Memorial Hall is very much alike, is also a body lying in State at Ho Chi Minh, do not know whether the light of reason, I do not think that is a real person. The front of the Memorial is a large square, around the slogan and Tiananmen, although not understand also can guess is probably long live the CPV and Ho Chi Minh and the like.

And then spent ten thousand guilders to visit Ho Chi Minh Museum and birthplace, the place I really have nothing of interest.

Single-column Temple (One-pillar pogada) is a famous scenic spot in Hanoi, in Ho Chi Minh Museum.

Incense is Mong a little Pavilion-like temples.

Near to the three times to find a restaurant with insurgents, make do eat a meal.

Then rent a two-wheeled rickshaw to go to the next spot. Viet Nam's rickshaw, who sat in the front, there is no traffic regulations feichi, eyes on the road are motor vehicles, it's a bit afraid.

Zhenwu view (Quan Thanh Temple) three words is Chinese, in the tranquil views.

Next to the West lake, also known as the West Lake. Rainy days the mist is large, we couldn't see anything.

A taxi back to the hotel nearby Kiem (Hoan Kiem Lake), the water is not too clean, top shelf red floor, Asahi bridge.

Bridge and opposite the Tak Yuet (Ngoc Son Temple) is a Chinese, a temporary relax.

Cold weather, make people a little bear, find a restaurant to drink water and eat dinner, go to the station after the hue (Hue).

From Hanoi to hue in Central Viet Nam sit Open bus to ten hours, and everyone thought it was terrible, so I decided to take the train. Soft sleeper didn't buy into, but hard sleeper also enjoy a soft sleeper, the original six-bed only four of us playing cards, shut the door. The train and it makes no difference in the country, and even slightly clean and advanced, because neither the station or in the car are very small. The only drawback is sitting in the beds are not straight.

Sylvia in charge of our cash power every day earnestly true reconciliation and found sitting tricycle mistake 100,000 shield as 10,000 shield to the driver.

This kind of face value of tickets is really easy to make a mistake, but I am too real the Coachman.

20, blue sky and white clouds of the ancient city of hue (Hue).

Silly slept one night, Viet Nam's train why not only the lights, waking up in the morning to find that each partition is to turn off the lights, we four are underestimated the Viet Nam train advanced.

The train out of sight and it makes no difference in rural China, lush fields, occasionally to see pieces of color of the grave. Eight or so off the train, luggage, next to the railway stationOn the edge of a small menlian, discover Hanoi Hotel didn't give us of hue to Hui Ann's ticket. Fill in the afternoon two tickets, rent a car to play around.

Hue Ling basking in Hong Kong Temple (were we translated into the Perfume River) River, is a very large temples.

There are many small Buddhist monks in and master of pruning bonsai, temples, and they will collation of neat and pretty, full of flowers and green vegetation. Plus the weather very well, don't feel like a temple, a little paradise of sensations.

Imperial City of Hue City, the Imperial Palace of hue, Viet Nam is also the last dynasty of the Imperial City, Korea Nguyen to Viet Nam existing largest and more complete ancient buildings, is the UNESCO's list as a "World Heritage".

The ancient city walls, the kind of lilies of the moat, the mottled still can see the magnificent architecture, holds a relatively intact. The Imperial Palace in the Hall and the treasure of the "Emperor" of the great imperial model everywhere can see the Chinese characters. The excellent weather, a bit of a headache because exposure, better in cool Earth also not hot.

In the old town, an ordinary restaurant eat slightly Viet Nam characteristics of rice, but also in the vicinity of a moat Pan turned, the driver was very punctual to appear in our agreed place, take us back to the station.

Open bus stops here, car is very old, luggage are piled on the last row, leg extension. Stopping at the transit point on the toilet when encountering other car two Chinese University students, their car was much better than us. It is said that they sit from Beijing 33 hours of train arrives in Guangxi, immigration from Guangxi, play it again after you go to Cambodia and Viet Nam, Thailand last from returning home. The reason why sit so long train is due to the fact that "no money," Jeff said that our University is no money, only to have to travel from Shandong. Very uncomfortable to sit for three hours, arrived at the hoi an (Hoi An). Open bus stop is a hotel, Sylvia actually want to live in town, but we all travel fatigue, watching hotel nice-to-kill in. Samsung hotel An Phu Hotel (an Phu hotel) condition is quite good, only $ 12 a room and a double bed and single bed in triple room, the room was very clean and tidy, with small balcony, free Internet access in lobby (Viet Nam Hotel basic in concourse free Internet zone).

After a short rest, we walk to town.

We live in a small town on the edge of the hotel, every time you walk about 15 minutes into a bustling petty bourgeoisie. Have a little taste of the old town of Lijiang, is full of small shops and great ambience of the bar restaurant, turntables foreign tourists. Our recent home Moon restaurant, very like the environment, and finally eat authentic and tasty meals.

In there to eat and mad photography.

After a brief stroll around the town of the night, went back to sleep.
