Our last day in Hanoi we headed out of the city for the day to Hoa Lu (ancient capital of Vietnam and site of some old temples) and Tam Coc (sort of a landlocked Ha Long Bay with a river running through caves). It was a bit of a long drive but there were some cool sights.
Taking in some nature at Hoa Lu
One of the old temples dedicated to a former emperor of Vietnam from the 10th or 11th century when Hoa Lu was the capital.
Then we headed to Tam Coc for a sampang (that's the name of the boat) ride.
The women row the boats expertly with their feet which is impressive.
See, sort of like a river Ha Long Bay.
Before heading home we grabbed some bicycles and cycled through some rice paddies which was really fun.
