🇻🇳 Battle of Dien Bien Phu: CRATER at A1 HILL to End French Indochina War {Dien Bien Phu, VIETNAM}

Historically, the Battle of Dien Bien Phu and the End of the French Indochina War changed how the colonized Third World was shaped after the Second World War.

The two-month battle in 1954 proved a success for the Vietnamese and once the French were defeated in Vietnam, this was the first victory by a guerrilla unit against a colonizing power.

Nearby A1 Hill, Victory Monument proudly celebrates Vietnam's military triumph and subsequent independence for the country. The city also preserves its history with the Battle of Dien Bien Phu Museum and Military Cemetery where tributes are paid to the fallen heroes who fought for Vietnamese liberation and freedom.

While these are somber grounds, honoring the Battle has become important tourist sites for Dien Bien Phu. Matt visits these sacred grounds during the Tet celebration in Vietnam, the Lunar New Year, and surprisingly the city is much livelier than anticipated.


Questions Answered:
- why is Dien Bien Phu important?
- why were the Vietnamese successful in defeating the colonial French?
- how did Vietnam fit into post-WWII colonialism?
- what is the Tet celebration in Vietnam?
- what are the tourist activities in Dien Bien Phu?

Sapa Bus Trip to Dien Bien Phu Vietnam (Sept 2009) Part 2

1 USD = 18000 VND (Vietnam Dong)
1 USD = 8500 LAK (Laos Kip)
1 USD = 3.5 RM (Ringgit Malaysia)
1 USD = 6.5 MMK (Myanmar Kyat)
1 USD = 4250 KHR (Cambodia Riel)

After visiting Vietnam Sapa and Fansipan mountain, we decided to go into Laos through the northern Tay Trang border to Laos. From Sapa Son Ha G.H we got our minibus tickets to DBP for 150 000 VND each. The bus is from LaoCai to DBP (300km) and passing through Sapa, LaiChau and MuongLay. It came to our knowledge that the cost of big bus from Hanoi to DBP is only 250 000 VND.

Dien Bien Phu, Vietnam to Muang Ngoi Neua, Laos by bus and boat

Got up at 4:45 this morning to take the bus down into Laos from Dien Bien Phu. There were several other people who were on it who had stayed at our hotel. It was almost entirely full of westerners (4 from the Netherlands, a Russian, a couple Brits, and the two of us, besides the other 2 Americans). My knees were pretty much touching the seat in front of me. I think it might have been the tightest fit in any bus I've ever been in. Tighter than any plane, too. It was an extremely scenic bus ride with lots of mud, rough roads, and remote villages thrown in. There was a bit of roadwork along the way including a couple new bridges going in.

During lunch, we all began to talk about the boat ride. Others were interested and we talked about trying to charter a boat to Muang Ngoi Neua in case there wasn't one going today, as the southbound boat apparently goes infrequently. Turns out a driver was bringing some people up from the river village and was going back anyway, so we got a good rate and he made a chunk of profit. We waited around for the bank to open (at Muang Khua where the bus stops and the boat leaves from) and several of us got money there. There didn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to which cards were accepted or how much money you could get. And the ATM outside the bank would work with some kind of proprietary Lao card, I think, but not MasterCard or VISA.

The boat ride was awesome. The breeze was pleasant, so it was comfortable. It rained some, but we didn't get wet (only from some of the rapids!). We paid 100,000 each (about $12.50). It was so worth it. Very beautiful. My girlfriend felt a little sick in the bus (the road was very twisty) and is tired tonight, but feeling okay.
