The core part of the city was very pretty.
It kind of reminded me of a more offbeat neighborhood or commercial
area in New York City. The tree-lined streets were filled with
shops of all kinds selling everything from clothing to electronics.

The metro area has a population of 7
million people and is growing rapidly. The province is not
nearly the largest but is the biggest in population at 100 million
people.
Something that was also interesting
is the climate was very similar to back home--in May it was hot and
humid! |
