Mui Ne, Vietnam, in Pictures - Day 2

Our 2nd day at Mui Ne was spent touring an area about an hour away from the main town. The ride was messy, rainy, and bumpy, but well worth it. We arrived, paid our entrance fee, and walked up a short incline to the tram stop.

Here we are on the tram that took us to the cable car.

As we were hurrying to the cable car (we were short on time), I snapped this photo.

Our cable car ride was awesome...and kind of terrifying.

Views from our cable car ride.

At the last second, this guy waved at the camera. Classic.

After we got off the cable car, we made our way to the long stairs that lead to the largest reclining Buddha in Vietnam. There were some booths selling photo trinkets and other items.

Finally, we arrived at the long, stone staircase.

These friendly creatures were crawling on a wire just above my head. Lovely.

Incense was lit at the very top of the staircase.

Hmm...which way should we go?

Partway up the next set of stairs is this altar.

Just after the altar are the Three Buddhises, beautiful statues that overlook the valley. Lots of people were there to offer fruit and incense.

The view.

And, finally, the Buddha.

All in all it was quite an amazing trip. You can read more about it in the first post about Mui Ne.
