Photos of Vietnam: Hue and Perfume River

This is a collection of photos taken in fall 2006 in Hue and during a boat trip on the Perfume River. We were approached in front of our hotel, the Saigon Morin, by the teenage son of a lady who owns one of the Dragon boats (shown on the pictures). After some negotiating we booked the entire Dragon boat for a three or four hour tour on the Perfume River for a very reasonable price (around USD 15). During the trip, the lady prepared lunch for us; she went to the Dong Ba market (shown in the images below) with a smaller boat at the start of the trip to buy vegetable, fish and tofu for the meal.
