Last week, I posted a photograph I took at the Borderless #Photography Exhibition in Ho Chi Minh City of a photograph by Cao Thanh Hà showing the beach at Nha Trang at night. Here is one of the photographs I took of the same beach this afternoon. #NhaTrang #Vietnam #SouthChinaSea

One of the photographs I took on the beach at Nha Trang this morning. I swam in the Novotel Hotel pool later in the day. #NhaTrang #KhánhHòa #Vietnam #Indochina #SoutheastAsia #SouthChinaSea #tropic #tropical #tropics #breakers #surf #swim #swimming #noswimming #sea #December

Relatively narrow #towers exploiting available space like the one on the left in this photograph I took this morning are fairly common here in Nha Trang. Some are hotels. #NhaTrang #KhánhHòa #Vietnam #Indochina #SoutheastAsia #architecture #greenery #tropics #urban #SouthChinaSea

Just above the long line of relatively low new buildings near the bank of the river to the left in this photograph, which I took this morning, you can see the giant hilltop Buddha at Long Son Pagoda against the hill rising in the background. #NhaTrang #CaiRiver #KhánhHòa #Vietnam
