Interesting

This trip gave me a whole new perspective on Vietnamese culture and history.
I attended the daily prayer sessions and explored the temple grounds at Cao Dai Temple. Really enjoyed it. The Cu Chi Tunnels was also interesting too. I loved it when making my way across the forest and reaching underground like a soldier. A well-spent day.
