        Take the morning trip to visit Independence Palace, also known at the Reunification palace, The Independence palace is a widely known landmark of Ho Chi Minh City and was designed by the architect Ngo Viet Thu. It was the sight of the end of the Vietnam/American war in 1975, as a North Vietnamese army tank crashed through the gates. The tank is still located at the Independence Palaces’ property. Continue seeing the beautiful structures from the French Colonial times such as the Notre Dame Cathedral, the historic Central Post Office. Followed by the remarkable site of the War Remnants Museum the museum has a vast display of the both the Indochina wars. In courtyard massive military vehicles are for exhibition as well as tiger cages for the visitor to get a feel on how it was to be a prisoner during wartimes. In the museum building itself, each floor will represent a separate theme from the war and the war crimes committed towards the Vietnamese people.

        Cu Chi Tunnel half day trip
        This is my second time to Cu Chi tunnel, this time was a wonderful experience because of our excellent tour guide Kay. Kay is a responsible and enthusiastic person giving us the whole picture of Vietnamese war and how VC made those tunnels to survive and fight with US army. I really recommend this trip, especially with tour guide Kay with TNK travel. 第二次造訪古芝地道,這裡是越戰時期的產物,越共為了抵擋美軍,不僅躲入叢林,而且更進一步在叢林裡打造長達兩百多公里的地下世界。裡頭有各種機能,讓人們能在這裡如常生活。但是,光是要進入狹窄的地道本身就需要強大的毅力。我們在地道裡爬了80公尺便氣喘吁吁,難以想像當時的越南人如何熬過來。

        Cu Chi Tunnel
        We went to this tunnel with Kim Travel, lead by guide Ethan. He is very knowledgeable about the history of this place. He showed us some history videos as well as explained to us the history of this place.

        Good night out
        The Cyclo ride was a great experience, slow enough that you can take in the atmosphere and not miss any thing along the way. The water puppets was a unique experience and although in vietnamese much of the short stories were entertaining and some quite comical, 45min and worth the time. Dinner cruise very up market to what we expected, the waiting staff very responsive to dietry needs, fast service and the food was plentifull although aimed to please the masses rather than local tasts. No complaints as we enjoyed it all. The views and lights along the river are relaxing, some lovely light entertaining topped it all off. Special thanks to Van, she was an excellent host.🤗
