The Long Wall of Quang Ngai

The Long Wall of Quang Ngai

Our trip starts in elegant and beautiful Hanoi City. We visit its key historic sites including Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, Temple of Literature and One Pillar Pagoda. The capital city will enrich your experiences with its rich history, busy shopping streets and cultural places. We take a cruise boat in the spectacular Halong Bay, where the Limestone Mountains and caves combine to make up one of the world’s most stunning landscapes. Sapa and its mountains, valleys and waterfall are full of colors from flowers, costumes and terraced rice fields of ethnic communities. We take the opportunity to explore their traditions and simple lifestyles. We also visit the ancient town of Hoi An to see traditional communal houses, museums and halls which have been well preserved for centuries before heading to My Son Sanctuary, the World Heritage of Vietnam. The highlight of the trip is the long wall of Quang Ngai, the longest monument in Southeast Asia made of stones and earth along the existing paths some centuries ago. We explore some of its key sites which are intact and unspoiled. Heading to Nha Trang, we enjoy a paradise on the beach, visit a marine protected island to enjoy a snorkeling and to discover colorful coral reefs. We enjoy a river boat cruise through densely connected network of rivers and canals in the Mekong Delta, passing through colourful floating markets and orchards. A home stay in an island is also a trip highlight. Saigon is a bustling city, the major economic centre of Vietnam. Yet it has a distinctive history which is revealed in our visit to its historical sites. We then try to explore the stronghold of Cu Chi tunnel, crawling through tiny path to experience a guerrilla life.
