I drew this while in my honeymoon in Vietnam.
I was over in Dalat, a city in the mountains, apparently the coldest city in the southern Vietnam. It's a tourist city, specially for the locals, because of the cool weather (it can get quite hot in the south).
It is a lovely city with lots of things to see. One of the highlights was the crazy house. It is indeed the craziest house I've ever seen.
It has been described as a “fairy tale house”. Its overall design resembles a giant banyan tree, incorporating sculptured design elements representing natural forms such as animals, mushrooms, spider webs and caves. Its architecture, consisting of complex, organic, non-rectilinear shapes, has been described as expressionist.
This drawing is a bit of the landscape in the garden.

The crazy house was so much more fun than I thought it would be!

Crazy House! There's a Vietnamese restaurant here named "Dalat" and now I know why. The decor, however, is very conventional.

What a cool story. I'm glad to see you drawing again. Keep it up!
