20221119 Saigon Vespa Tour

Several of us took an afternoon Vespa tour which included a stop for lunch.

We stopped by a Taoist Temple.

Then we visited the Ten-Thousand Buddha Pagoda. (In Vietnam a Pagoda (chùa) has (a) Buddha; while a Temple (đền) does not.) This four-story bb houses a “cemetery” where people who can’t afford other options, bring the ashes of their loved ones. Memorials range from urns, to paper “headstones.”

After dinner I walked some of the streets around the hotel. They blocked off the street in front of the hotel for pedestrian traffic.
