Next we went to the Cao Dai Holy See, Cao Daism is a faith which was founded in 1926 it is a fusion of 4 religions Catholic, Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism following the belief there is a universal god. We then went to the Cu Chi Tunnels where the vietcong dug themselves tunnels to protect and fight against the americans during the vietnam war. These were quite small and Henry went into a few and explored them from inside. In the evening we went on cyclos with 2 friends from the bus tour around the city seeing the sites from the cyclos at night was definately my favourite we then got dropped of at the Apocolypto Now bar which was a famous GI hangout during the war and is one of the few bars still around today.
