Advices for visitors coming to my country

My country, Vietnam is a dynamic, beautiful country. There are many visitors to come to Vietnam every year to visit many interesting places or look for many chances to invest. There are both exciting and frustrating at the same time when you travel every where, so I would share some advices that are most important.
When you come to Vietnam, you should find some information about Vietnam. For example, the weather, transportation, food, politics......
First, the weather in Vietnam just have two seasons, rainy and sunny. Vietnam is tropical country, so the weather is hot all year. If you are living in the country that the weather is cold, you will feel uncomfortable when you come to Vietnam. You should prepare some appropriate clothes for the hot weather.
Second, transportation in Vietnam is very different from another country. There are two popular transportation in Vietnam that are motorcycle and car. Beside that, you can use the bus or ' xich lo", this is a Vietnamese bicycle that has three wheels. You can use those kinds of transportation to visit around some big city such as HoChiMinh, HaNoi, Hue....But you are careful when you drive in Vietnam, because all the roads are very crowd.
Third, there are a lot of delicious food in Vietnam you should try when you visit. For example, "pho" is one of most popular food in Vietnam.
Moreover, most of Vietnamese is so friendly, they can show you everything you need to ask more information. However you are carefully when you come around the street alone, especially at night. Like every where all over the world, you are strange compare to people in Vietnam and it is easy to recognise you on the street, so you can become a target for pickpocket.
To summarize, when you travel some countries, you should look for a lot of information about the country that you come and learn to adapt every situation. If you can do that, you will have memorable travel, and you can learn about many different cultures

  1. Trinh - Thank you for the warning about the weather. I didn't realize it is hot in Vietnam all year. Thank you also for the warning about the pickpockets. It is important to be careful in every country, isn't it!

    Traveling in Vietnam sounds exciting and a little dangerous!

    I really like pho and spring rolls! I need to try more Vietnamese foods. I'm sure I'll like them! :-)

    I do think Vietnamese people must be friendly and kind because all of the kind Vietnamese students I met!
