Today I joined Emma to visit the War Remnants Museum (please note - this museum will make you re-think about the Vietnam War). Clearly the Museum is one-sided but one cannot deny the devastation of Vietnam and its people caused by the war.
Well, after visiting the Museum, I definitely don't want to visit the 'Killing Fields' site in Cambodia. The Agent Orange exhibit was haunting and disturbing to see so many innocent lives affected by it. It's worth a visit (you'll be depressed after the visit)...especially the special exhibit on war photographers who perished during their assignments. Just amazing and inspiring.
Emma and I tried to find a cool rooftop bar on our last night in HCMC, she's heading back to London and I'm off to Cambodia, but we never really found one near our hotel and it started to rain....basically, we were too lazy to venture outside of the walking distance. We decided to chill and find a nearby spot for dinner - only problem was we didn't know what we wanted - Mexican? Thai? Vietnamese? Maybe a combo of all?
Tomorrow...I'm off to Siem Reap, Cambodia.
