Long Xuyên, Việtnam

309. At Dawn

Bãi Tắm Hoàng Hậu, Quy Nhơn, Bình Định, Việtnam

308. Prayer at Chùa Thiên Mụ

307. Hếu's Citadel

In mid-summer when hot winds from Lao blew through caused the air to be over heated and unbearable, and as the result the place was almost empty during my visit.

306. Misty

Bà Nà hills, Đà Nẵng, Việtnam

I took this photo around mid morning, because of it's high altitude the weather for this location can be vary throughout the day.  The mood of  it just reminded me to those old classic movies of the 60s.

On The Way Down

304. Ngủ Hành Sơn - Marble Mountains - Part 1

On The Way Up

Đà Nẵng, Việtnam 

I hiked up the Marble Mountains early in the morning.  It was quiet, and there were no other groups beside my group.  It has an elevator to the temple on the top of the mountain but it was not open until later.  My group included mostly of older folk and I was the youngest one, they were all in good spirit  so it helped to make the hike more enjoyable, it took us about 45 minutes to get to the top. Along the way I stopped by two temples, the top one was built inside the enclosure of the these mountains range. 

303. Remnant of War

Buôn Mê Thuột, Vietnam

I took a short walk through the center of the city before our tour bus take off to the next destination. The atmosphere felt cool and quiet just like the distanced memories of the war, that had stopped over three decades ago, to the current generation.

302. See

Do You See It?

I Think I See It! 

Oh!!! I See It Now.

301. Feeling Like A Warrior

Buôn Đôn Village, Daklak Province, Vietnam. 

Located north-west of Buôn Mê Thuột city, it is well known for elephant hunters and trainers.

I was hesitated to ride the elephant on my first visit to Buôn Đôn village earlier year,  but on my second visit that I finally gathered all my courage to give it a try with my mom, and aunty.  It felt like I was sitting on a slow moving ferris wheel.  As my well being was placed on the elephant and it's trainer, I hold on tight to the wooden rails and could not believe how high it was.  For the first part of the ride, the elephant walked through a rugged down slope path to get to the water bank.  Few times I thought the elephant was going to nose dive down the slope and I was going to get throw out of my seat but it was just my anxious thoughts since the elephant had make it to the water edge without any problem.  Next, it was half way submerged in water, I wondered if the weight of the four human being was over barring for the elephant while the elephant took it time to march through the water and back to the where we began. Thank you to my mom and aunty whom had encouraged me to give the elephant a chance, without them I would not have gone through it.  (~.~)

300. Cầu Cần Thơ - Cần Thơ Bridge

Vĩnh Long Province, Vietnam

Amid its construction on September 26, 2007 section of the ramp collapsed.  It was inaugurated almost three years later on April 24, 2010.

299. Typical Night

A typical Night in the City. 

Nhà Hát Thành Phố - Opera House - Saigon, Vietnam

298. Veggie Hut

Cook heaven!

297 Thung Lũng Tình Yêu - Valley of Love

Dalat City, Vietnam

It was my first visit to the valley of love, not much to said about it. I had hear people talk about it when I was growing up but the hype disappeared as I got to visit it now.

296. Prenn Falls - Dalat

A trip to Dalat would not be complete without a visit to it many water-falls, Prenn Falls was the one I visited. I believe it was privately run park therefore it required visitor to buy ticket to enter the park. A short walk, part of the path was under renovation had make it a little difficult some time, leaded to the fall and the small bridge cross it's path. I walked by 5-10 groups of visitors so it was not that crowded. The place was more like a short stop for about an hour on the way to Dalat.
