Hanoi Note: This trip was done in 2001 and 2002 Hanoi is Vietnam’s capital town with 3 million citizens (8 millions in 2019) .From 1902 to 1953, Hanoi was the capital town of the French Indochina, which from 1893 consisted of Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.Hanoi is a town surrounded with beautiful lakes and lush parks, and it feels a little bit more spacious than HCMC (Saigon). However, the pulse of life is just the same. The most visited area is […]
DMZ Note: This trip was done in 2001. We also made a one-day excursion from Hué to the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ). DMZ consists of an area about 10 km wide and located around the Ben Hai river. This river forms the split between South Vietnam and North Vietnam. The area around the DMZ is still not cleared by mines, and everyday new mines are found.Our first stop was in a mountain district near the Laos border. Due to the fact […]

The city is split in two sections by the Parfyme River. We really recommend a boattrip at the Parfyme River. […]
Saigon, or Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) has 9 millions citizens. Add to that about 2.5 million of mopeds/motorcycles. One advantage of that is that the city is not as polluted as for example Bangkok. The traffic is very hectic. To go from one side of the street to the other side is a big achievement. You can not stay and wait for someone to stop and let you pass, you must slowly go forward without stopping or going back! […]
