year. The pagoda
itself is built into limestone cliffs and can only be reached by boat and foot,
as there are no roads into this area. You will glide along scenic waterways and
walk up steep mountain paths visiting the pagodas and temples that were built in
this area over the last centuries.
Departing Hanoi at 07:30 we have a two hour drive through the picturesque
countryside and back roads to the village of Duc for some refreshments before
boarding our boats for a 1.5 hour ride along the scenic Yen river. After this we
will walk to the Thien Tru Pagoda (Heavens Kitchen) and the Perfume Cave and
Pagoda - an hours walk. On our way back we visit Giai Oan and Tuyet Son Pagodas.
Lunch will be at one of the little food stalls near Thien Tru Pagoda. After
