tree-lined boulevards, peaceful lakes and oriental temples. Recommended places
to visit include the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, One Pillar Pagoda, Fine Arts Museum
and Temple of Literature and the Lake of the Restored Sword and the Old Quarter
of Vietnam's capital. Additionally the Museum of Ethnology and a traditional
Vietnamese water puppet show in the evening at Thang Long Theatre are very
enjoyable.

the use of rice or noodles. Whether your choice is for vegetarian, multiple

name but a few traditional favourites, Cha Ca, Banh Chay, Banh Troi, Nem Ran

Ho Chi Minh City in south Vietnam lies on the Saigon River north of
the Mekong River delta. The former French colonial city, home to over 5
million, is a bustling modern metropolis where travellers enjoy the historic sites
and architecture and marvel at the intricacies of local Vietnamese handicraft.

tunnel under Gia Long Palace. A boat trip on the Megong Delta is surely a must

the mists and the sun. It is extraordinary in shape, size and colour and rich
vegetation. There are many beautiful caves and stunning beaches to explore in
the summer and autumn. The islands are said to be where the dragons descended
into the sea when Vietnam was defending itself from Chinese invasion.
Highlands Winter temperatures can fall slightly below the average and
rainfall is higher than at lower elevations. However, most rain tends to fall
during the summer months when it can be very wet - although these summer months
do provide a respite from the often intense heat of other areas. The exception
is on the Central Highland (Kontum down to Lam Dong) where it's cool year-round
(temp. from 55 to 65 deg. F (13 to 18 deg. C), with moderate rainfall.
Tourism in modern Vietnam is enjoying a boom time. As safety for
tourists to Vietnam no longer presents great concern, this beautiful country
can be explored from north to south, from Ha Noi to Ho Chi Minh (Saigon).
Lowlands Summer - the weather is warm and reasonably dry from May to
September. The monsoon winds then change bringing above average rain during
late September. This time is not ideal as rain can be fairly constant -
flooding and, in extreme cases, typhoons are also a possibility.

Nha Trang The weather is fairly similar across both, although the highlands
tend to be slightly cooler with higher rainfall as the majority of rain
normally falls on the mountains before arriving at the low coastal areas.
