Day 5: Lang Son tour - Hanoi (B,L)
Lang Son’s two markets, the Dong Kinh Market and the Old Market, definitely
worth visiting. There, you can find practically everything from gadgets and
electronics to housewares and textiles; however, we should be careful as there
are many counterfeit products. And, if you do not fancy markets much, you can
alternatively visit the attractive Mac Dynasty Citadel ruins and the two
spellbinding caves, the Tam Thanh Cave and the Nhi Thanh Cave, found only a few
kilometers away. The Tam Thanh Cave has a beautiful pond, and you get to see a
gorgeous vista of the surrounding cultivated land. At the Nhi Thanh Cave, on the
other hand, is an entirely different picture. The man that discovered the cave
back in the 18th century, carved poems into its entrance, which give out a more
Shakespeare-like effect to the cave, as you walk through it and hear the
bubbling river that flows through it. After spending time exploring the area, we
have lunch and get ready for the return trip of our motorbike tour Vietnam. We
head back to Hanoi, by taking the modern four-lane highway from Lang Son that
gets us down the mountains in no time. Then we drive back to Red River Delta,
