3.4. Hai Phong

TELEPHONE CODE: 0313
Haiphong has a special place in the nation’s history books as the site of two glorious victories over invading forces, the first led by Ngo Quyen and the second by Tran Hung Dao. Haiphong today is more a port for coastal shipping than a destination for deep-sea trade. In the summer the city is a blaze of colour thanks to the red flowers of the ubiquitous poinciana trees.
