Overview
Pastoral countryside and frenetic urban scenes form the backdrop for this dynamic, insightful examination of a nation striking a balance between communism, capitalism, Confucianism, bygone colonialism and feudalism. It's a thrill to watch the chaos and order play out their yin and yang amidst honking horns, noodle stands, tranquil rice fields, colonial remnants and glass high-rises. Explore Beautiful Hanoi, Hué, Danang, Hoi An, My Son, Saigon, the Mekong Delta, and the notorious Viet Cong stronghold, the Cu Ci Tunnels.
