A
bustling
port city on the Gulf of Tonkin, Haiphong is Vietnam's third-largest
city. Despite its heavy industrial economy, the city does have
several points of interest, including temples and pagodas (the
Du Hang pagoda is especially nice), the Hang Kenh Communal House
(intricate wood sculptures and stone carvings) and a colorful
flower market. A side trip can be made to Bao Ha, a village
famous for its wood carvers: High-quality carving are sold at
very reasonable prices there.
