second most important in Vietnam after Hanoi. The main ethnic groups
populating the area are the Kinh and Hoa. Over the past centuries, Saigon, once praised as the
Pearl of the Far East, was
known as an important trading centre for Chinese, Japanese, and Western
merchants who traveled upstream the Saigon river to Pho island. Phanthiet The town sits on the borders of CaTy river,
is 20km from the ocean and swells with boats during the fishing season in the
summer months. A few kilometres east of Phanthiet are some of the most
beautiful stretches of beaches in Vietnam. Some are lined with tall coconut
trees, others lean against vast red sand dunes. The CuChi tunnels, a 75 mile-long underground maze, built over 25 years from the 1940s,
