I was on my second tour of duty to Vietnam and looking for a more earthy experience as opposed to the commercial offerings that Jennifer and myself had. I told Julie (Duong Lam Ecotourism organizer) that I was looking for something different. Julie came back with the Duong Lam Historical Village which is only a short drive out of Hanoi, well 45km in Vietnam can take longer than the average drive in Australia! The tour was a winner. The best part of the tour was having a random chat with a one of the local farmers, and the ladies who were selling water to make a living which were on the outer part of the community. We did learn Vietnamese from them. Lot of fun!
