CU CHI CAO DAI 1 DAY

• Having an opportunity to enjoy a short film of Cu Chi tunnels before entering the underground so that tourists have a deeper understanding of how this complex system works.
• Giving it a try to fire an M16 rifle at the shooting site (payment is required).
• Enjoying some kinds of local food.
• There are nine hierarchies of worship including a pope, cardinals and archbishop with festivals, rituals and prayer all practiced regularly. The temple is similar in design to a Christian Cathedral featuring side aisles and an altar, as well as a long central nave, all positioned as they would be in a Christian Church, there is even a high dome decorated with clouds and saints. The main focal point is a Divine Eye symbolising God which has the Ying and Yang icon in its pupil. Ceremonies take place daily with two services accompanied by musicians and a choir singing in English to traditional Vietnamese music.

Cu Chi used to be a bitter battleground for many years during the Vietnam War. Visitors to our country should not miss a visit to these underground villages. They are an intricate network of over 200km of tunnels at Ben Dinh, 60km from Ho Chi Minh City.

Firstly, you will go straight to Tay Ninh to visit Cao Dai Temple-a place of pilgrimage for quite a few South Vietnamese people and for those who are interested in CaoDaism – this is a unique religion that you might never expect to encounter. You will enjoy peculiar hymns with followers attired in livery red, yellow, blue and white at the noontime prayer service. Quite a scene for the eye and for snapshots. Following is lunch in Tay Ninh. Then return to Ho Chi Minh City -We will stop at the underground village at Ben Dinh in Cu Chi District., which was used by the guerillas during the Vietnam War.
