Vietnam & Halong Bay Long recognised as one of Asia’s most dynamic countries, Vietnam is a kaleidoscope of colour and culture, blending French influence with traditional Asian philosophy and style. Exotic and utterly compelling, Vietnam is a journey not to be rushed.

A tale to tell From the bustling cities of Ho Chi Minh City and the capital Hanoi, to quaint riverside villages in the Mekong Delta and the towering rice paddies of Sapa, Vietnam’s compelling history is on display everywhere, from the ancient pagodas of imperial dynasties to more recent relics of Vietnam’s complex past. With a focus set firmly on the future, but a commitment to preserving its heritage, Vietnam successfully blends old with new to create a destination like no other. Arguably one of the biggest impacts on modern-day Vietnam is its most recent conflict. In Ho Chi Minh City travel to one of the many entrances that signal the vast network of the Cu Chi tunnels hidden below the city, before reflecting on Vietnam’s history during a visit to the nearby War Memorial and Reunification Palace.

Tip of your tongue Vietnam’s intriguing mix of culture is very evident via its food. From French-inspired pastries to the ever-popular Bánh mì, deliciously fresh Goi cuon and of course, Vietnam’s national dish – Pho – you could be forgiven for spending all your time eating. Learn how to make your favourite dishes at home during immersive cooking experiences. Visit local markets to find the freshest ingredients before enjoying cooking classes at Red Bridge Cooking School in Hoi An and Madame Anh Tuyet in Hanoi, where you may learn to make the ever-popular bun cha, a regional specialty of the capital. Take to the streets on a Vespa foodie tour of Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi, and explore their energetic nightlife and delicious street food – as a local would.

With its collection of 1,600 islands and islets, Vietnam’s Halong Bay is a sight to behold. Sail on board the luxurious Au Co and enjoy the only continuous two night cruise within this World Heritage-listed Site. Explore deeper to discover stalactite-filled caves and a seascape of limestone outcrops jutting dramatically out of the blue green waters. In-depth exploration The best way to appreciate the magnificence of Halong Bay’s many islands, isles and karsts is by sea. Though tours in traditional junks, ferries and speedboats are popular with travellers, this continuous two night voyage on board the innovative and luxurious Au Co provides up-close views of the majestic peaks and access to some of the massive stalactitefilled caves without the need to change boats, offering in-depth exploration of this beautiful bay away from the day trippers and one night cruises. As you sail further into Halong Bay, there are plenty of ways to make the most of your time there, from kayaking, swimming or snorkelling

in hidden lagoons, to sunbathing on tranquil, pristine beaches and riding a bicycle on Cat Ba Island. The Bay of Dragons Myths and mysteries abound over the formation of the bay. The literal translation of Ha Long means ‘descending dragon’ and a favourite local myth has it that the bay and its magnificent landmarks were formed by the thrashings of an enormous dragon that was trying to reach the ocean. Another popular tale, believes the islets and karsts were created out of gems cast down from dragons defending the land in the time of the Jade Emperor. Whatever the truth about how it came to be, Halong Bay is a truly remarkable destination. Scenic has partnered with Au Co to offer guests a special two night in-depth cruise of Halong Bay: 32 elegant cabins, all with French balcony Sun Deck and Terrace Bars to relax Evening Sun Deck BBQ Luxury Halong restaurant serving a variety of Western and Vietnamese cuisine Open air movies Library Early morning Tai Chi lessons and afternoon cooking classes and demonstrations on the Sun Deck Open air jacuzzi Spa Centre Gift for Scenic guests Exclusive wine tasting for Scenic guests A true 3 day/2 night cruise deep into Halong Bay, no need to change boats during your cruise

The country offers one of the world’s most remarkable collections of temples – the wide plains of Bagan once featured more than 4,000 of which an incredible 2,230 still remain – while the ancient pagodas and monasteries of Sagaing will leave you spellbound.

Embrace local traditions In Sagaing, give alms and participate in a blessing of food with novice monks and nuns at their monastery, while at Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon partake in a traditional oil lamp lighting ceremony. You can even leave your own mark on Myanmarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s culture and learn how to produce gold leaf at a local workshop, before the male guests can place it on an iconic Buddha statue. Meet the locals One of the most charming aspects of Myanmar is its people, who are all too happy to share their traditional culture with guests. While visits to temples are a must, it is the towns and villages where there are opportunities to interact with local families that will remain in your memory for a lifetime. Support local communities and hitch a ride on a trishaw or horse-drawn cart, or enjoy a home-cooked meal with an Intha family while at Inle Lake. In Bagan, rise early to give alms with local residents and interact with the local school children and nuns in Sagaing. Watch a tour of Myanmar with David Whitehill @youtube.com/ScenicCanada
