Itinerary:
You will depart from Saigon for the Great Cao Dai Holy See, a place of pilgrimage for quite a few South Vietnamese people and for those who are interested in Caodaism, a unique combination of Buddhism, Taoism, Confucianism and Christianity. At the noontime prayer service, you will enjoy a peculiar solemn ceremony accompanied by special religious hymns with followers attired in lively red, yellow, blue and white. After enjoying lunch in a local restaurant, you will have a transfer to Cu Chi tunnels. Cu Chi used to be a bitter battleground for many years during the Vietnam War. Visitors to our country should not miss a visit to this underground village with an intricate network of over 200 km of tunnels at Ben Dinh. You will be back to Saigon at late afternoon.
