Marble Cake

In between Hue and Hoi An Kelly and I jumped off our yellow little bus and ventured off into the Marble Mountains. Temples litter these four mountain tops that surround the Marble Village, that now imports their marble from China. 
We only hiked through one mountain, but it was gorgeous. 


There's the marble town and another one of the mountains off in the distance.

He looks so happy, right?
There were also these caves that were fun to explore. 
This particular cave served as a hospital during the American War. 

This is China Beach. Apparently it was a favorite R&R for American soldiers. (Also, the setting for some Vietnam related TV show)

Daibutsu! 

Oh, I also must add what BAMFs we were. We explored and hiked the whole mountain with our backpacking packs. Beasts.
