chris-en-hils > Temple of literature. Education is a virtue in Vietnam and the temple of literature is the first university  of Vietnam. Accidentally (?) bombed by the french at the end of their reign it was rebuild to its former glory. Ancient slabs with student names have been burried during the American war to preserve them. - Hanoi, Vietnam '08
chris-en-hils > Drinking a 'lassi' with our guides at the side of the street. Their enthousiasm was great. - Hanoi, Vietnam '08
chris-en-hils > Typical streetview in Hanoi. Hanoi is the governmental center of the country housing the communist party and has an older and grittier feel to it. Saigon in the south is the financial capital of the country and is more modern in its appearance - Hanoi, Vietnam '08
chris-en-hils > Commercial spam on one of the traditional 'custard yellow' walls in Hanoi. The red and blue text is concrete advertisement (with phone number) and a real nuisance to local inhabitants - Hanoi, Vietnam '08
chris-en-hils > There are still remnescants of the occupation of Vietnam by the French and a fair ammount of the Vietnamese is still christian - Hanoi, Vietnam '08
