Canals of Ho Chi Minh City

Even though you have to wake up really early to arrive on time to Caibe (floating market Vinh Long Province), and much earlier still if you go from Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), and even though the traffic, heat and humidity are terrible, you´ll definitely "wake up" and enjoy yourself once you arrive. Once you get there, you´ll want to take a boat ride on the Anbih Culao channels so that you can see the life of the locals around the canal from close up. The channels are absolutely covered on the banks with a tangle-shaped vegetation that blocks you from seeing the insides of the houses but their lives really revolve around the channels so you will see them swimming, fishing, scrubbing pots, washing clothes, and maybe even plucking chickens.
