Tour itinerary:
Pick up at your hotel in Saigon City center and make a sight-seeing tour for visiting:
The Great Holy See Temple, built in 1926, is considered one of the most striking structures in all of Asia.
It is the head quarter of Caodaism, a religion with colorful mix of Buddhism, Christianity, and Confucianism.
We will attend a prayer session to witness the daily mass held by Cao Dai followers, which is a great experience.
After lunch, we head to Cu Chi Tunnels, now considered a heroic district for its role in the anti-American war in Viet Nam. It is legendary for its tunnels system of over 200km and is a popular spot for both Vietnamese and foreign visitors.
We find it hard to imagine the destructions, damage and defoliation all over the area, caused by bombing and mines when Cu Chi was "a Free Target Zone". Visitors will see how Cu Chi still has the evidence to prove the fierce battleground that took place there, and we will see the remnants. Return to your hotel & ends of the trip
