Visit the Cu Chi tunnels a place famous for its tunnels with 200km long. The Cu Chi tunnels played a vital part in the American war, allowing the Viet Cong to control a large rural area only 30 to 40 km from Saigon. The network, parts of which were several storeys deep, included innumerable trap doors, specially constructed living areas, storage facilities, weapons factories, field hospitals, command centres and kitchens. Cu Chi is also known to many people as a "special school" of Vietnam, from daily life to important meeting was held underground. Children were born and brought up underground, under bombs. Cu Chi is not thought as tunnel only but most importantly the symbol of will of people. We return to Ho Chi Minh City for lunch. In the afternoon we take a cyclo tour including the War Remnants museum.

This is the entry to the Mekong Delta. My Tho has the biggest fruit gardens. It is interesting to visit the ancient pagoda of Vinh Trang, which was built at the end of the 17th century. The pagoda owns a set of 18 wooden statues of arhats. The snake farm of Dong Tam also serves as an attractive tourist spot.

Being the capital of the Mekong delta Vietnam, Can Tho is a thriving metropolis with huge streets, little action and loads of mosquitoes. Although Can Tho has its own market by the riverside, where you can get excellent ice-cream, the principal attraction would have to be the nearby floating markets. Being rather industrious, the centre of Can Tho is quite busy and noisy with motorised cyclos roaring up and down the streets combined with throngs of people going about their lives. The riverside can have its quiet moments, but Can Tho is also a burgeoning are a number of pagodas worth visiting, and for the trivia fans, Can Tho is the home to much of Vietnam’s fish sauce..
