Day 2 - April 18

Hanoi - Train to Sapa

We ate breakfast at the Gouman Hotel. We then visited Ho Chi Minh City Mausoleum and One Pillar Pagoda, West Lake, Tran Qouc Pagoda, and Literature Temple. We had lunch at QUAN NGON. The tour was impressed by the cuisine and the extensive selection of Tapas dishes (photos coming). In the afternoon, we visited BAT TRANG VILLAGE. The village is well known for their beautiful china wares. At night, we went to Vietnam's famous Emperor Restaurant in Hanoi, where both the food and the service were superb. We then took a beautiful old French Victoria night train from the Hanoi Rail Way Station to Lao Cai..
