Thanh Pho Can Tho is a really beautiful city. If you want to know what Saigon was like just 3-4 years ago, just come to Can Tho. The development is not as fast as in Ho Chi Minh city but it is beginning to increase. With the new bridge nearly completed, Can Tho will most likely develop at a higher rate. I got some great shots of Can Tho from the Kim Lan Hotel.

@Graham: Please elaborate 🙂 I was surprised that it was beautiful since I heard so many bad things about it. It is definitely cleaner than Saigon.
@asdasd: I think Can Tho is between 150-180 km from Saigon. It is exactly a 4 hour trip from Saigon to Can Tho including a 30 minute stop and 15 minute ferry ride. Once the bridge is completed, The trip should take 3 and a half hours.
I have not been to Hue yet.
