Introduction
On the Government Backpacker bus/coach route, this is the first stop from Hanoi.
Not many tend to book to get off here. If you fancy a change and are interested in seeing an old area of ancient earth then this is the stopping point for you.
Alternatively, if you wish to exchange ancient culture to current rural living, hire a bicycle for $1 a day and simply take to a road and within a few minutes you are passing wonderful markets and into the fields of the surrounding countryside.
The locals of the surrounding villages speak very little, but still speaking (!) English. The children run out of their muddy concrete houses (no glass windows) and call "Hello". If you reply, another "Hello" will follow.
Signposts can take you to the ruins of a temple/civilisation that will set the imagination running wild!
