Our hotel is in the Old Quarter which is also the main town in Hanoi. They have got this mega pasar malam that's open every night till 1am?Not exactly impressed by the stuff they sell but its always nice to juz walk ard.

Another gentle reminder telling us that we're in Vietnam...bikes,bikes,bike!& yes, the endless honk-ing
Uncle Toh kept wanting to try the food from the roadside stalls..no choice but to say I WILL TRY.*i survived*
HALONG BAY consists of a dense cluster of 1,969 limestone monolithic islands, each topped with thick jungle vegetation, which rise spectacularly from the ocean. Several of the islands are hollow, with enormous caves. Hang Đầu Gỗ (Wooden stakes Cave) is the largest grotto in the Ha Long area. French tourists visited in the late 19th century, and named the cave Grotte des Merveilles. Its three large chambers contain large numerous stalactites and stalagmites (as well as 19th century French graffiti). There are two bigger islands, Tuần Châu and Cat Ba, that have permanent inhabitants. Both of them have tourist facilities, including hotels and beaches. There are a number of wonderful beaches on the smaller islands.
