The lovely climate, with the sun shining all year round, and above all the beautiful beaches, make Kos one of the most appealing destinations for travelers.

Estamos acostumbrados a ver fotos espectaculares de aviones. Ya sea  en tierra, despegando, aterrizando, en crucero (volando en altitud de crucero), en hangares o en pistas, de día y hasta de noche,  muchas veces nos sorprenden porque no somos capaces de averiguar desde dónde han sido tomadas.

Situated on the northern bank of the Red River, Kieu Ki is considered as the unique village in Vietnam still performing the standard craft of manufacturing gold leaf. The dexterity of Kieu Ki artisans is created in pagodas and temples where statues are covered with thin gold leaf.

On the road to the village, guests are able to hear locals hammering gold to provide thin sheets. Old and young people are committed to the craft. The village elders believe Kieu Ki villagers learned to form gold leaf 3

As Salangane Island is far from the mainland, tours need to depart very early in the day and so we woke up bright and early to be at Cau Da Wharf at 6:30 a.m. for our great trip.

Nha Trang is a tourist attraction however tourists who travel to Vietnam sometimes overlook one of its treasures – the kingdom of salangane. 

The cruise departs at 7:30 a.m. with a light breakfast prepared for tourists as the ship smoothly surfs on the waves. The warm sunlight and delightful surroundings got us ready for
