Hoi An to Hue mountain hop – Vietnam
Prior to a tunnel through the mountain being built the mountain pass between Hoi An and Hue was the main way to get to Nothern Vietnam, so the Americans built heavy battlementsĀ on top of the hill. The mountain pass is free whereas the tunnel is a toll so a lot of locals still have to ride up the steep twisting slopes in all weathers on their tiny motorbikes.
Next I was off on another sleeper train to the famous Harlong bay.
