I only spent a few days in Vietnam as part of an Indochina tour. To really appreciate this country it would take weeks to explore the hidden beauty of a country with so much destruction endured in its history.

Is there truly anywhere left that hasn't been seen by most people before, or anything that hasn't been done!?
