A LITTLE HISTORY

The Vietnamese also couldn’t help but add their touch to the remaining city. They took what’s left and turned it into a romantic town, which is why it’s called Honeymoon city. They have a radio tower that has the shape of the Eiffel Tower – they offer horse-drawn carriages and their very own Valley of Love.
