Saigon in the final days of the year is bustling, which can easily make people feel suffocated. If you’re craving a bit of calm, misty air and the tranquillity of a monastery, but are hesitant about long journeys with unfavourable weather like the current conditions in Da Lat, then Tay Ninh is the perfect answer.
