Activities, Excursions of Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam).

Vietnam is a country with a long coastline and lots to see and do. Capital is Hanoi, after the reunification of North and South in 1975. For a very long time The North was part of China - and communist. Other countries like France left their footprint as well. Nowadays it is a free country with great landscapes and beaches, rice fields, hill tribes, interesting food, very friendly people, a good economy and many reminders of its past.

Ho Chi Minh City is probably better known as "Saigon". It is the 2nd largest city in Vietnam, but not very touristy. The few sites are mostly related to the Vietnam war with the USA, for example the war museum and the deep, narrow holes / channels, where the Vietcong hid themselves and fought.
