On the Way Back to Ho Chi Min

This is a memorial commemorating the day the Vietnamese kicked out the French. There was a castle at the top of this hill but nearly all of it was destroyed except for one tower. Behind the memorial you can see some of the gun turrets the French used to keep the Vietnamese out.
This is the remaining tower from the French castle.
Inside the Temple (next to the French Castle) was the Shiva Linga, which is a hindu symbol. This has been here for over 900 years.
