ANGKOR CENTURY HOTEL

Surround yourself in the rich history and breathtaking scenery of Vietnam. Step back through time at the ancient citadel of Hoa Lu, Vietnam's first capital. Cycle amongst the lime karsts and surrounding scenery. Then explore the spectacular scenery of Trang An complex, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Grab a fascinating peek into some of the most important traditions in Hoi An: lantern making, vegetable cultivation, and ceramic and wood crafts. Cycle to the home of a local craftsman to learn about, and participate in, the ancient art of lantern-making. Peddle on past lush rice paddies to the farming village of Tra Que, Hoi An, to learn about farm cultivation, and get a glimpse of rural life. Then, hop on a boat for a relaxing tour along the lovely Thu Bon River, combined with visiting traditional craft villages.

Every morning, Hanoi gather at the banks of the lake to practice Tai Chi, gymnastic, martial arts, or simply walk around the lake. Enjoy this special moment when the city seems to be waking up in a silent slow motion before the start of the incessant traffic and the intense heat of the day.

Hoi An is certainly a good place to do a cookery course in Vietnam. A huge range of places offer courses, which gives you the opportunity to shop around and find something that suits you.
