Cu Chi Tunnels, Vietnam - Hype and Reality.

Image from "Cu Chi Guerrillas" © Cu Chi Tunnel, 1967. One of the most interesting things they show you when you visit the Cu Chi Tunnels exhibit in Vietnam - provided you can muster a sufficient sense of irony - is the kitschy propaganda video "Cu Chi Gue...

In Vietnam, I'm On a Boat.

Apropos of nothing - assorted Vietnam boat pictures to the tune of The Lonely Island and T-Pain. If you don't get my drift, the music video's at the end. Tourist Boat at Halong Bay, Vietnam. I'm on a boat I'm on a boat Everybody look at me 'cause I...

Kim Bong Woodcarving Village, Vietnam.

Just 30 minutes' boat ride from Hoi An (or an hour's bus ride and an hour's boat ride from My Son - depending on where you're coming from in Vietnam) lies this riverside craft village of Kim Bong. We make it here on the afternoon following our rather di...

Worship at the My Son ''Holy Land'', Vietnam.

The last tour in my Hoi An/Vietnam itinerary: a jaunt to the My Son "Holy Land", a sacred city built by the Hindu Champa Kingdom which used to rule the area until the 18th century. There are good reasons for and against taking the tour. Reason for: My ...

Window-Shopping in Hoi An, Vietnam.

Hoi An used to be a bustling center of trade in Central Vietnam - until the river silted up, preventing big ships from docking there. Business shifted to nearby Danang, and the town slid into irrelevance - which ironically saved Hoi An from the worst exces...

Tomb-Hopping in Hue, Vietnam.

The Hue Citadel, and the Ngo Mon Gate.

It's one of the ironies of Vietnamese history, that it took the last dynasty of Vietnam to create such a grandiose living complex for itself... only to see it mostly obliterated by World War II and the Vietnam War. The Hue Citadel is a huge compound cover...

Feeling the "REAL LAOS"

A lot of travelers come looking for the "real Laos", but few know exactly what that is. For about 80% of the population the "real Laos" is village life, and the best way to really get a feel for how the Lao live is to spend a night or two in a home stay. A...

The National Psyche

It’s hard to think of any other country with a population as laid back as Laos. Baw pen nyang (no problem) could be the national motto. On the surface at least, nothing seems to faze the Lao and, especially if you’re arriving from neighbouring ...

Politics & The Economy

At first glance the politics and economy of Laos seem simple enough: a one- party system is controlled by ageing revolutionaries that themselves have me a new elite, who have the power to control the exploitation of the country’s natural resources, c...
