This is one of the port city's along the delta and lots of materials transported along this water way. I spent 4 nights in this area which was enough to get a feel for life here. People are very poor and very hard workers. There life on the river is simple and lots of them living on working boats of all sorts. Food is good and one item on the menu is snake (cobra) which they keep in tanks at the restaurant. I asked about a small sample but they want me to order the dinner which did not contain a very big piece of snake. They say it has medical properties and will heal certain ailments Oh well maybe next time. Is there any doubt you are in a Communist country take a look at the flag with Ho.
