An Independent Trip To Northern Thailand & Vietnam, Part Eight: From Hanoi To Hạ Long Via Haiphong, 20 March 1996

This was one of those picturesque travelling days, for which I wrote few words but for which the pictures can say far more than words ever could.

Breakfast then off to Highway Five towards Haiphong – stopped in Tongs [Hải Dương?] Province for tea and green bean cake – then on to Haiphong for lunch and then looked at communal house (Hang Kenh) and on to Hạ Long Bay via ferries etc.

We got on the above ferry after photographing it, but missed the one below

Arrived in Hạ Long at dusk

Stayed in Hạ Long West – took the ferry to Hạ Long East for a walk before dinner and early night
