Nha Trang is a southern coastal city in Vietnam. It is well known as a resort community for international tourists and has beautiful beaches and scuba diving. It was the site of the Miss Universe Pageant 2008. As well, it has a French colonial flavor along with British and Vietnamese influences.
It was HOT and HUMID. Verrrry hot and humid. So traveling around was difficult. We went to visit a rice field with no shade and I felt sorry for the farmers and work animals. We went to visit a pagoda and a local school with children excited to entertain us. Also went to a silk embroidery factory.
The primary mode of transportation is motorcycle ... and the streets and traffic is crazy. There is also a lot pollution due to the exhaust fumes. Many wear masks. Am sorry I didn't buy some when we were in China!
Still having a good time!
Regards to all.
