Of course, we can have some breaks in between if you need to stop for a while and take photos of the amazing landscape, or quench your thirst for some more exploration!
Our next stop is at the Dong Ky village, probably the most notorious wood carving village in Vietnam, where you can watch carpenters are they create masterpieces decorated by oyster shells and snail, from plain wood, through a detailed step-by-step procedure infiltrated with excessive love for their art.
