Hi! My name is Tre O'Neill and this is the story of my two week trip through Vietnam. My trip was during the lunar New Year which is the biggest holiday in Vietnam.
Hanoi
The cool, cultural, political and former Capitol of French Colonial Indochine. I met these two nice soldiersoutside the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum.
Hue
The Imperial Capital of Vietnam where Emperors built majestic tombs and a citadel on the banks of the Perfume River. It was wet and our bikes late so we rented some local one-speeds.
Hoi An
An ancient Japanese trading port, Hoi An retains unique wooden architecture, Chinese temples and excellent cuisine that makes it everyones favorite stop.
Nha Trang
The "Waikiki of Vietnam." What to do in a beach town with no sun? We headed off on bike to explore the wide boulevards, ice cream shops and back alleys.
Dalat
A former French Hillstation, Dalat lies high up in the central highlands. The high altitude and clear skies made for great cycling around the lakes, villas and countryside of this unique city.
