Incense sticks drying in the sun.
We have spent 3 days here and did a walking tour of the city and a boat tour to look at the emperor's tombs and temples.
These sampans are where very poor families live on the river between the old city and the modern city. There are about 1000 boats and about 7000 people. They prepare and sell food on the side of the street or catch newts and crabs. They have TVs and shrines on the boats. Many men work in the city as motorcycle taxi drivers or as cycle rickshaw drivers.

The tourist sights were free for the day so they were crowded with local Vietnamese families dressed in their best clothes enjoying the sights.
