these views are insane
it's creepy today we are driving the high van pass in Vietnam on this airblade motorbike like
they did on Top Gear I'll be driving from the beautiful town of Hoi An to the ancient capital
of Vietnam also known as Hue we are also going to try and sneak into a little abandoned theme
park hopefully we get in if you want to do the high van pass on a motorbike like me I'll be
explaining how you can do it too later on the video I'll leave a timestamp here hello [Music]
first we need to try and find some petrol because they gave me this thing empty
uh full
QA going to QA hi van pass is it good yeah like they did on Top Gear
boy
pretty sure we're in the city of Danang I think this is like a third or a fourth
largest city in all of Vietnam and look at the beach we've got a beach oh that looks stunning
can you park here you can thank you
forged up next to this beautiful beach it's like pretty much white
white sand it looks incredible and I might get a coffee as well this place looks beautiful look
at it what's the best one what should I get you one coffee coffee yeah coffee coconut coffee is
delicious yeah I'll have a coconut coffee then let's do that thank you I'm on the beach with
Shoes On which feels very very strange I'll be honest I don't like this I really don't like it
I want to be barefoot but I've got this coconut coffee recommendation we've got some skyscrapers
here because we're in Danang which is yeah a big city here in Vietnam try this coconut coffee
oh that's good that's tasty I'll be honest this beach is beautiful it's better than the
one in Hoi An like this is stunning it actually kind of reminds me of the Gold
Coast because of these big skyscrapers behind us and then like a beautiful beach and it's
surfing as well so like this is like Gold Coast Australia Vibes I love it [Music]
whoa I think I've seen the mountains we're going to be going over today
crazy this looks like a big old bridge
there's the high Vamp pass just there
that is a lot bigger look it's literally covered in the clouds
so in the distance that is the high Vamp pass you can't even see the top
of these mountains that's crazy hello give me a beat give me a beat yeah
yeah suddenly got a lot colder I think there's cold wind coming off these
mountains because it's just a sudden drop in temperature it's really weird
we are beginning to go uphill so I haven't seen a signpost or anything but I assume we've started
the high van path the road surface is really good as well so far it's gonna speak too soon yeah
literally five minutes in and I just can't stop this is insane look down at this beach it looks
so remote I'm not oh there is a little road you can get down but this is it we're going
to be going right up to these mountains and I think over you see this little bit
through this little hole but already this is like a massive base so back there is Danang
I don't know why this big trucks come in here because there's a big fast Highway
which takes like 30 minutes not this like long route over the mountains but maybe they just
want a good view on their truck ride I don't like being Behind These tracks it's not nice
I need to go put my hoodie on freezing [Music] that looks like there was a bit
of a landslide here and they've put some like barriers up that's crazy
hello hello
yay
yeah let me and me yeah yeah Vietnam Vietnam
[Music]
is it a good spot okay yeah
okay I'm just sitting down taking in these views
because it is insane I got a Sprite twenty thousand don't
okay let's go down the high band pass now we've come up
we're at the top and it's time to head back down
[Music] it doesn't seem to be as many people
on this part of the past I don't know why but there's not [Music]
the high van pass is awesome you have to do it
yeah Google Translate
okay um let's have this
really how much
man you okay
right so we're getting rice fish eggs chicken let's see what we get with rice let's give it
a go you know why not support this lady fifty thousand it's not too bad is it here we go we've
got some food this looks interesting there's quite a few good little bits this is actually
really tasty there's like really nice chili and flavor in there and the fish is really good
it's just like there's a bit in it like Just Fish fill it
that was really tasty I mean the sea is just there so it's probably been caught very recently
all right back on the road with a full tummy this is like the massive Bridge which cuts through the
mountain so if you want to go the fast route it's only like 30 minutes through the mountain
the crazy thing about the high van passes it's actually not that long I think it's like maybe an
hour ride it's not like you know if you're doing the hashian loop up north it's not like a massive
um Loop or anything it's just an hour and then you've got to drive on the highway
I think for like an hour and a half to two way so yeah just something to know
for your expectation it's not like four hours along the most incredible coaster
ride it's about an hour of incredible views and then yeah that's that's about it sort of
the high van parts that is it but I want to go to this abandoned theme park which
is just outside of UA it's about an hour and a half drive so I'm gonna get the bike I'm
just gonna Full Speed Ahead just get there and then we'll see you hopefully outside it let's go
see that bite on my arm it's like blood what is that that was horrible it was like stuck up my
sleeve and just stinging me continuously I'm assuming it was a wasp or something
so I am on the outskirts of QA and I'm going to try and head to this abandoned theme park or
water park now and it's only about 15 minutes I think we are literally a few minutes away
I don't know how we're gonna get into it but let's go have a look
I'm pretty sure I'm inside this abandoned theme park now it does kind of look like
one a little bit but there's so many people feel too abandoned look at that
that's the famous that's the famous bit you've seen on Instagram the dragon this is crazy there's
even a someone selling drinks here I thought you had to bribe someone or you know pay some
money to get in but it doesn't look like it now it looks like in tourist attraction wow
look at that the Dragon this does feel like a
theme park I actually think it's a water park theme park but yeah
very graffitied up look all the graffiti everywhere wow wow feels a bit sketchy
whoa yeah so I think this was like a little aquarium area you can hear the glass yes [Music]
this is a bit creepy
where are we it is a bit creepy
this is a bit creepy
[Music]
I think there's a couple of other spots in this water park so let's go check them
out let's drive around this path then and try and see what else we can find
let's go through here I don't know what we're gonna find but you never know unless you go
well duck ducking
let's go have a look I think there's something oh I think we've got water slides
I wouldn't want to go in there I mean to be fair it's been done really cool like
I'm guessing they've planted all these palm trees it feels really aesthetic
what was that
these slides look quite cool
those that were in the jungle it is quite warm like I've got my hoodie on but yeah maybe I
shouldn't go on that a little wobbly I tell you what I wouldn't want to go up there hello
that sounds so weird this sounds so weird hello
[Music]
God did your friend please go down click that button because this is good content thank you
this is cool maybe we can get up although we're not gonna be too stupid if it's a bit dangerous
yeah this feels creepy
guys this is crazy moving on then we are heading towards this like Stadium
area where it used to be like apparently there's a capacity of 2500 because I had
a look on Google like this amusement park and it was abandoned in 2004
let's go check out this Stadium
I'm just chilling at the top of this Amphitheater just taking it in it's quite a nice light Golden
Light won't stay here for Sunset but it's pretty cool I'm gonna jump back on the bike and head into
QA now because I want to drop off the bike get everything sorted get into that hotel and relax
because honestly a lot of driving a lot of busy busy stuff today when I get back to the hotel I
tell you everything you need if you want to do this High van pass because it's awesome
like definitely recommend it and it's also a cool way to get from Hoi An to Hue or hue to who I am
this is a cool little Bridge
say goodbye to the dragon over there buy to the theme park this is a cool place
let's go let's go back to the hotel well to a new hotel
we're in the hotel let's talk about how you can do the high van pass too because there's a few
different options the first option is that you can actually take like a tour bus and go to like
the spots on the bus and you basically stop off obviously not as exciting the second way you can
do exactly what I did and just drive yourself or with a friend or with friends and yeah stop
off whenever you want the Third Way is you can actually get an Easy Rider which is basically
where you jump on the back of a motorbike and a Vietnamese will drive you all at the spots or to
the different spots and you can stop off whenever you want which is kind of Ideal if you're you know
you're not you don't want to drive a motorbike because obviously if you're not got experience
you shouldn't I actually booked it with a travel agency in Hoi An and it was really good actually
they booked everything for me and it's gone really smoothly um but you can actually book it online
and I'll leave a link in the description I think it's get your guide and so you know if you want
to go with a reputable company because you know it's it's very safe the roads are really good but
you know if anything goes wrong then you're with a big rep Tool company so that's just something
you can do but yeah highly highly recommend it it was so much fun it'll take the whole day but you
know you've got time to stop um I got in about 5 p.m but I also went to the water park obviously
so that kind of shows there's plenty of time please if you haven't subscribed do it right
now just two seconds please because I've got so much more Vietnam videos coming for you I'm so
excited also the hashian loop that's gonna be epic thank you and I'll see you in the next video bye
