Vietnam

Overview

Julian Hanton visits Vietnam and, in Ho Chi Minh City, discovers that the scooter is king. Julian visits the tunnels where the North Vietnamese soldiers lived and fought underground. On the Mekong Delta, he finds out why durian fruit is banned from every hotel and tastes the pleasures of rice wine imbued with the flavours of seven snakes. Further north in the stunning Hanoi, Julian meets with a veteran and hears horrifying tales from the war first-hand, before heading to one of the wonders of nature, Halong Bay.
