some pictures of interiors in Saigon
a great corner shop restaurant
inside a hindu temple
above and below: inside some of the city's buddhist temples
the cao dai religion is a local religion that mixes hinduism, buddhism, chrsitianity, islam and some other things. it's an especially strange religion in part because the western ambassador of this religion was Victor Hugo. I dunno... so this is their largest temple in Vietnam, just outside Saigon

Ariel, loved the caves(the colors!) and the sand dunes. The temples are so elaborate just like the Roman Catholic Churches in the 17th and 18th centuries. Was the water cold in the bay? Tell Ross he has to smile for pictures sometimes, his smile is very warm.
Keep taking pictures,
Maida
