| Dong Hoi is a middle-sized town on the coast ... |
|
|
| ... with a band of land between river and sea ... |
|
|
|
| ... and even an nice beach. |
|
|
| But to the real attraction, one has to rent a motorbike and ride to the countryside ... |
|
|
| ... along Buddhist cemetaries and rice fields ... |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| ...and take a boat. The price of the boat depends how many people are sharing it, so it's good to time it up with an organized tour. |
|
|
|
| The boat will take you along green hills ... |
|
|
| ... misty mountains ... |
|
|
| ... sleepy villages ... |
|
|
|
| ... rainforest and cliffs ... |
|
|
|
| ... until your destination: the caves of Phang Nha. |
|
|
| You stay on the boat for the most part of this visit |
|
|
|
|
|
| ... but you set foot on land a couple of times too. |
|
|
| It's not easy to take pictures in the dark on a moving boat ! |
|
|
| The cave visit is long but most of my pictures are missed ; we have some videos though. |
|
|
| The way back is the same |
