Ha Long Bay

I’m travelling for work this weekend and had the opportunity to spend an evening in Ha Long. This shot is of the bay from the beach. Ha Long Bay is really very beautiful. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

I’m hoping to spend more time here, and soon. I would like the chance to take a boat and explore the islands.

One of the interesting parts of the visit to Ha Long was the trip to the market. I picked up some souvenirs. Unlike a lot of markets I’ve been in here, this was very low key and relaxing. Maybe it’s because we were there in the early evening, but none of the vendors yelled at us or grabbed us or tried to force us to buy their wares. I quite like it and probably bought more than I otherwise would’ve…
