We had a wonderful overnight stay on Halong Bay arriving back at Tuan Chau Island about 11 o'clock. We travelled via our tour bus back to Hanoi along a rater bumpy highway. You can see a photo above of some of the narrow houses built that way to save on Land Tax. The tax is charged on the width of the landholding and not on the depth so most of the homes are double story but only one room wide. There were a lot of road side stalls that were open to the heat and weather. It would be a hard way to earn a living.
We arrived back in Hanoi in time to do some shopping and have our last dinner in Hanoi before flying out to Dalat the next day.
