Or Saigon. With a two hour delay due to previous storms I finally arrived in this amazing city. It’s a mixture if tradition and modern trends, chaos and friendly people. I mostly explore the city by walking which is really hard because of its temperature and humidity.
Something really tough is the War Remnants museum showing the war in pictures. So many civilian people were killed, absolutely cruel. I would say the Vietnamese Holocaust. Nevertheless I have spent a great day in this huge city.

A storm has tried to follow me for the last couple of days and finally catches me in Nha Trang. A city at the beach, famous for diving and a Russian paradise. My diving plans have been cancelled and now I’m stuck with hundreds of Russian in this town (I would say that Nha trang disappointed me a lot, as everything is in Russian and made for Russian tourists. The amazing Vietnamese atmosphere has gone, so sad). Well, just had an excuse to make beauty and spa day, not so bad. Hope my flight to Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City) will not get cancelled.

Graceful historic Hoi An is Vietnam’s most atmospheric and delightful town. Once a major port, the old town has been also declared as an UNESCO World Heritage site, absolutely amazing.

Another visit to an UNESCO World Heritage Site: Hue- palaces, pagodas, tombs and temples, culture and cuisine and a great history of the Nguyen emperors. This city owes its charm partly to its location on the Perfume river, and of course of its Citadel. It is absolutely amazing!

That was a special moment on this UNESCO World Heritage Site located in Quang Ninh Province, Vietnam. I could appreciate thousands of limestone karsts and isles in various sizes and shapes and a beautiful view over the turquoise water. Spending a night on the Amman Junk boat made it even better.
