Dien Bien Phu

After a day in Hanoi, I flew out to Dien Bien Phu, site of the last battle in the French Indo-china war in 1954. Well, it's different to Hanoi. For a start, it's hot and sunny. There are no organised tour companies in each hotel, and the traffic is light. They still drive mopeds through the market for no reason though.
The main sites are all laid out, so you just have to find a taxi driver who speaks English. Oh, and there are plenty of Thit Cho restaurants (that's dog to you). What's it taste like? Well certainly not chicken!
