Jour 2
|
Hanoi
(Petit déjeuner/-/-)
Breakfast and we will head to TEMPLE OF LITERATURE, a peaceful series of walled courtyards and graceful
gateways, and one of the best surving examples of traditional Vietnamese architecture. Founded in 1070 and
dedicated to Confucius, this was also the site of Vietnam's first university.
Continue to the miniature ONE PILLAR PAGODA. Also dating from the 11th
century, this monument was rebuilt after being destroyed by the French in
1954. Today it stands near the vast HO CHI MINH MEMORIAL COMPLEX, a
lovely park setting which is home to Ho Chi Minh final resting place, as well
as a museum and other memorials. Begin at the HO CHI MINH MAUSOLEUM,
where visitors can pay respects to the embalmed body of Ho Chi Minh. The
Mausoleum is closed in the afternoons, on Mondays and Fridays, and closes
annually in October and November for restoration. Continue through the
park to HO CHI MINH STILT HOUSE, the simple two-room dwelling where Ho
Chi Minh lived from 1948 until his final days. Preserved in the same condition
as during his life, it may be viewed through the windows.
Finally, head to HOAN KIEM LAKE, located in heart of Hanoi, which contains an islet with the tiny TORTOISE
PAGODA. Enroute, pass other colonial landmarks such as the magnificent OPERA HOUSE (may be seen from the
outside only) and ST JOSEPH'S CATHEDRAL. From the lake, walking to explore the OLD QUARTER. This fascinating
network of narrow alleys and shophouses is also known as The 36 Streets, each street being named after the
merchandise traditionally sold there, ranging from fabrics to crafts to medicines to tombstones. A handicraftlover's
paradise and a endlessly interesting place to explore local life.
The alternative visit for History Museum is The MUSEUM OF ETHNOLOGY (close on Monday), which brings to life
the astonishing ethnic diversity in Vietnam, with art and artifacts from the 54 different ethnic groups that inhabit
the country. Inside the museum are detailed descriptions of minority groups, with examples of their traditional clothing and way of life. Outside are faithful reconstructions of traditional longhouses, cemeteries and other distinctive ethnic buildings.

Hoi An is a picturesque riverside town south of Danang. Known as Faifo to early western traders, it was
one of South East Asia's major international ports during the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. Now, this beautifully preserved historic city is best seen on foot. The walking tour includes:
- JAPANESE COVERED BRIDGE PAGODA: the first bridge on this site was constructed in 1593 by the Japanese community of Hoi An to link the town
with the Chinese quarters across the stream. The bridge was provided with a roof so it could be used as a shelter from rain and sun.
- SA HUYNH MUSEUM: located near the Japanese Covered Bridge, it contains exhibitions from the earliest period of Hoi An's history.
- TRAN FAMILY CHAPEL: this house for worshipping ancestors was built about 200 years ago with donations from family members. The Tran family traces its origins to China and moved to Vietnam around 1700. The architecture of the building reflects the influence of Chinese and Japanese styles.
- PHUOC KIEN ASSEMBLY HALL: Chinese pagoda built around 1690 and
then restored and enlarged in 1900. It is typical of the Chinese clans that were established in the Hoi An area. The temple is dedicated to Thien Hau Thanh Mau (Goddess of the Sea and Protector of Sailors and Fishermen).
- LANTERN MAKING WORKSHOP: Visit one of the lantern workshops in Hoi
An. The framework of lantern will be made by the industry itself and clients can observe locals making silk cloth on the lantern.
By vehicle from Hoi An to Hue with sightseeing in Danang. From Hoi An begin driving north, stopping just outside Danang to visit the MARBLE
MOUNTAINS, five stone hillocks, once islands, that now rise sharply from the surrounding ricefields. Riddled with
caves and shrines, they are said to each represent one of the five elements of the universe.
Continue to the city of DANANG, briefly passing CHINA BEACH, a famous spot for American soldiers during the Vietnam-American War and touring the CHAM MUSEUM an elegant colonial building which now houses the finest collection of Cham sculpture in the world.
From Danang, journey north past LANG CO, a lovely stretch of beach curving outwards between a clear blue lagoon and the South China Sea, before arriving at Danang.
Continue along steep mountainous roads with spectacular views of the coastline, crossing the dramatic HAI VAN PASS, the high dividing line between the climate zones of north and south Vietnam. Overnight in Hue

boat and cruise down the PERFUME RIVER to the iconic THIEN MU PAGODA, an elegant seven-tiered octagonal
tower which has become Hue's most widely recognizable monument. During the early 1960s, this became a center of anti-government protest, and the site of the famous self-immolation of the monk Thich Quang Duc.
Then start sightseeing in Hue, the capital of Vietnam for more than 140 years. It houses ancient temples,
imperial buildings and French-style edifices. It was established in the 17th century.
- Visit the Imperial Tomb of Emperor Tu Duc: Emperor Tu Duc, who ruled Hue more than 100 years ago, built his tomb when he was still alive and used it for meditation, reading and theater performances. There are pavilions in a tranquil setting of forested hills and lakes. The tomb was constructed between 1864 and 1867. Tu Duc, who was the longest reigning Emperor, lived a luxurious life.
- Visit the Imperial Citadel: Located in the heart of Hue is the IMPERIAL CITADEL, a vast complex built in the early 19th century and modelled after the Forbidden City of Peking.

an important Vietcong base during the American War. Stretching over 200 km, this incredible underground network, dug by hand out of hard laterite, connected command posts, hospitals, shelter and weapon factories. Today, you can walk through the area and learn about the day-to-day life of the VC, see the cleverly disguised entrances and elaborate booby-traps, and even venture inside the tunnels, some of which have been modified to accommodate tourists.

Jour 8

Saigon
(Petit déjeuner/-/-)
Sightseeing in Saigon and Cholon (Chinatown). A vibrant metropolis, SAIGON teems with energy, activity
and motion. Everywhere you look, you see the meeting of traditional and modern life. The emerging modern
skyline stands cheek by jowl with colonial buildings and traditional temples. Outside on the streets, young
professionals zip by on motorcyles, chatting on cellphones; inside the quiet temple courtyards, worshippers pray amidst clouds of incense.
Begin your tour of this exciting city with a tour of the historic center, strolling along DONG KHOI STREET,
formerly known as the Rue Catinat, the main shopping thoroughfare and heart of old colonial Saigon. Pass by
classic European-style landmarks such as the ornate CITY HALL (HOTEL DE VILLE), the old OPERA HOUSE (both may
only be viewed from the outside), and pay a quick visit to the neo-Romanesque NOTRE DAME CATHEDRAL and the CENTRAL POST OFFICE.
Afterwards dive into modern history with a tour of the REUNIFICATION PALACE. Formerly the Independence
Palace of the South Vietnamese president, this 60s style uwas famously stormed by tanks on April 30, 1975
signifying the fall of South Vietnam. It has been preserved in its original state, and the original tanks remain on
display near the entrance gates. Continue to the harrowing WAR REMNANTS MUSEUM, which comprehensively
documents the travails of the long Vietnam- American War. Inside are detailed photographic exhibitions; outside
is a collection of tanks, planes and weapons. A powerful experience, this museum is guaranteed to provoke strong emotions. Afterwards driving to the historic center to visit EMPEROR OF JADE PAGODA, one of Saigon's most interesting pagoda.
In the afternoon, head out to CHOLON (CHINATOWN). Explore the highlights of this fascinating area, beginning
with a brief visit to BINH TAY MARKET, the vast wholesale market selling every kind of good from dried foods to T
shirts to electronics. Continue to THIEN HAU PAGODA, build by the Cantonese congregation and dedicated to the
