Central Vietnam has many vestiges of the country’s cultural and dynastic past, but tends today to be more famous for its long white sandy beaches, and coastal cities such as Nha Trang are considered the playgrounds of the people.

Day 2: Hue – Da Nang - Hoi An
Today we head out for the countryside. Being the ancient capital, Hue is surrounded with tombs of emperors of the past, and a visit to some of these tombs will be on the itinerary for today. We will start our trip by visiting the ThienMu pagoda. Within the Imperial Enclosure of the Imperial Citadel is the Forbidden Purple City, which was almost totally destroyed during the Tet Offensive of the Vietnam War, and the museum of Royal Relics. We move on to the Colosseum where elephants were pitted against tigers to the death for royal entertainment. From here we will continue onto Vong Canh hill, a VC stronghold during the war, and then head out to the eccentric Tu Duc tomb. We have lunch in Hue before our drive to Hoian. (B,L)

Day 3: Hoi An
Hoi An is a charming little township. Between the 17th and 19th centuries Hoi An was a thriving international trading port. More than any other place in Vietnam, Hoi An retains the feeling of centuries past and is a favourite with all travellers. You can spend your time walking around the historic town soaking up the atmosphere, exploring the fascinating local market or hire a bicycle and head off on a scenic ride to Cua Dai beach, about 4 km away. Besides, it is interesting to explore the many Chinese assembly halls and fascinating ancestral homes, some of which have been occupied by the same family for fifteen generations. If you wish, have a whole new wardrobe tailored or improve your culinary skills with a Vietnamese cooking lesson! The riverside market is always a hive of activity, especially in the early morning when the day's catch arrives. One thing's for sure - there is no shortage of things to do in this town! (B,L)
