Hi @beforeyoupack, thank you for sharing your experienced. I not yet visited Vietnam. After your post, Vietnam would be my next visit place. It really amazing with the temple and statue in the mountain. It such a great view from the top of the mountain. It amazing that a big cave inside the mountain and how they maintain it. The route you travel closer to nature then the escalator route. Which I myself would love to explore that route although it must be tiring.
Your photographic skill also amazing, all photos show the lovely scene and as if I personally there while I read your post. You spend how long to explore that mountains?
