"8 days in Vietnam" a Vietnam Travel Page by hmoitta

I have always admired vietnamese people but I started wanting to go to Vietnam when I saw the movies 'Indochina' and 'The Lover' , both of them showing french colonisation in Vietnam and with wonderful views ( Halong Bay and Mekong Delta ).
So,because I was traveling alone,I bought the only packaged tour to Vietnam (via Thailand) available in Rio and stayed about a week in Vietnam visiting the north (Hanoi and Halong), the center (Danang,Hoi An and Hue) and the South (HoChiMinh City, former Saigon and Mekong Delta).
I´ve found a wonderful country and people.
I was really impressed by the guide´s personal story:
He and his brother fought in the American war in opposite sides and almost killed each other visiting their mother!

Halong Bay

The classical tour

I started visiting Hanoi, from there overnight in Halong and back to Hanoi.
Next I went to the center, visiting Danang, Hoi An and Hue crossing Hai Van Pass. This area was my favourite, with ancient cities and temples.
At the end I went to the South, visiting Ho Chi Minh City and Mekong Delta.
