Vietnam: My Son





My Son: This was a Cham religious site between the 4th & 13th centuries, rediscovered by French archaeologists in the 19th century, and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Centre. We left Hoi An @ 06.00hrs - pillion passengers on motor bikes - It was incredible, driving through the small villages in the dark and seeing dawn break over the mountains. The site of My Son was calm & peaceful and we were the only ones there. Go very early, or late in the evening when the hordes have left!
