Our last day in Vietnam we started the day with a tour of Hanoi. We saw the tomb of Ho Chi Minh, who led the Vietnamese people in a revolution, making the country communist. It was interesting that in Vietnam, the Vietnam War is called the American War. We also saw several places where Ho Chi Minh lived, as well as some government buildings. Then we went to a museum that had a lot of exhibits about the different cultures in Vietnam.
We also visited a Taoist temple, which was my favorite part of the day. There were Chinese characters everywhere, and Taoism is my favorite eastern religion.
Two of our group members got pickpocketed at the temple also, some lady just reached over and took their money!
