Alena & Anton's food and travel adventures
Ustrice jsou povazovany za delikatesu a podle toho taky stoji. Ne vsude ale, na ostrove Cat Ba se na ne divaji skrz prsty a ji je akorat turisti a chudi, protoze kilo se da poridit priblizne za 10 korun. Ja souhlasim s mistnim pristupem, normalne si v jidle nevymyslim, ale po predchozi zkusenosti pro me … Continue reading Na kajaku v Lan Ha Bay
You know how oysters are considered a delicacy and come at a price? It's not like that everywhere, on Cat Ba island locals think oysters are disgusting (I'd agree) and they are only eaten by tourists or poor people because they sell for about £0.25 a kilo. Cat Ba is also called the Island of … Continue reading Kayaking in Lan Ha Bay
Nikdy bych nerekla, ze by me mohlo bavit sledovat lov lisek, ale je tomu tak, akorat tenhle hon byl zinscenovany za pomoci loutek na jevisti pokrytem vodou. Slavna Vodni loutkova show v Hanoji je velmi vtipna, i kdyz to tak tvurci nejspis nezamysleli. Predstavte si svetelkujici draky, jednorozce vypadajici jako cerveni psi nebo treba dramaticke … Continue reading Hanoj
I've never thought I'd enjoy watching a fox hunt but I did, only this one was performed on a water covered stage with puppets. The famous Water Puppet Show in Hanoi is very funny in a bizarre way. Expect sparkling dragons, unicorns that look like red dogs and dramatic fishing scenes from rural villages. I don't … Continue reading Hanoi
Pro presun z Hue do Ninh Binh jsme zvolili nocni vlak. Cenove to vyjde plus minus nastejno jako autobus, riziko celni srazky, kdyz ridic usne, je podstatne nizsi a hlavne muzu jit na zachod, kdy se mi zachce. Sdileli jsme ctyrluzkove kupe s vietnamskou rodinou, tata chrapal jenom trochu a maly akorat jednou kniknul, takze … Continue reading Po stopach King Konga
To get from Hue to Ninh Binh, we decided to try an overnight train. Costs more or less the same as a bus, you're less likely to crash if the driver falls asleep and, most importantly, you can go to the toilet whenever you want so it was a no-brainer. We were sharing a 4-sleeper … Continue reading Ninh Binh
Vladarske roucho vypada honosne, ale zaroven dost nepohodlne, co rikate? Jestli je tomu opravdu tak nebo ne, se da snadno overit v byvalem hlavnim meste Vietnamu Hue, kde se muzete navleknout do kralovske garderoby a nechat se zvecnit na fotografii. Za maly priplatek vas vyfoti aji se dvema sluhy, ale uz nespecifikuji, jestli jsou v … Continue reading Hue
Ever wondered what it's like to be an emperor? In Hue, Vietnam's old imperial capital, you can get a feel for the experience as you take a picture on the throne wearing a full set of royal clothes. You can also pay a bit extra and get a snap with two servants, though they don't … Continue reading Hue
O narodnim parku Bach Ma jsem se docetla uplne nahodou a z rozmaru se rozhodla to tam jet okouknout. Trochu mi to pripomnelo nas vylet do Phu Chi Fa v Thajsku v tom smeru, ze na internetu neni moc informaci, jak se tam dostat, kde si zaridit ubytovani, kudy vedou turisticke trasy a jak jsou … Continue reading Mlha v Bach Ma
I randomly found a mention about Bach Ma National Park and decided on a whim I wanted to go. It reminded me of our trip to Phu Chi Fa in Thailand in a way that there's not much info online on how to get there, where to book accommodation in advance, how long the hiking … Continue reading Misty Bach Ma
