Hue - Duc Son Orphanage

At the Thien Mu Pagoda is kept this old blue Austin sedan, which monk Thich Quang Duc drove to Saigon in 1963 and, upon arrival, set himself on fire in a major intersection to protest the war.

Unfortunately, there are still quite a few orphanages in Vietnam. This is Duc Son Orphanage and some of its charming denizens
