Such serenity is Mong Tay Island Beauty, which offers an ideal opportunity pace to definitely relax and rejuvenate oneself

The courtyard outside contains the spoils of war, namely rusting jets, tanks and cannons captured from the American military machine.

The Old Post Office is another example of French colonial architecture and is also the country’s largest post office.
