In Vietnam, it is very important to learn to cross the road correctly, because it is likely to affect your life. Remember! When crossing the road, never wander, look around, stop or look at the map. In short, everything that has nothing to do with walking can't be synchronized with crossing the road. When crossing the road, all you have to do is walk, and the pace must be steady.
2. Vietnamese expressions of dog meat and cat meat:
If you don't like dog meat or cat meat, it is very important to learn Vietnamese expressions of these two words. th? T chó stands for dog meat, th? T mèo stands for cat meat. Although the Vietnamese government promulgated a law prohibiting the sale and consumption of cat meat in 1997, in recent years, Vietnam has smuggled a large number of cats from China and Laos, all over the streets. Remember, if the restaurant staff recommends exotic flavors to you, you should be careful, otherwise the exotic flavors waiting for you are cat meat you don't like.
3. The confusing Vietnamese currency:
A large number of denominations with different values make Vietnamese currency easily confused. Only by remembering the denominations of these currencies clearly, will you not treat 100 yuan as 10 yuan flower. The monetary unit in Vietnam is the Netherlands guilder, and 1 yuan is equivalent to 3505 guilders. One suggestion: when you arrive in Vietnam, you can remember the denomination of money according to its color. For example, the blue currency is equivalent to 30 yuan RMB.
4. Correct pronunciation of Vietnamese ethnic dishes:
Learn the correct pronunciation of Vietnamese national specialty "pho" and you won't be hungry, because this dish can be seen almost everywhere in Vietnam. This soup is based on noodles, which is quite delicious. The pronunciation of this soup is "fuuh", which is similar to the pronunciation of the first syllable of the English word "phenomenal", but many people can easily pronounce it "foe" by mistake.
5. Something seasonal:
In summer, Vietnam is humid and sultry, so you don't have to wear jeans and other close-fitting clothes. You can choose some light clothes. It's quite cold in northern Vietnam in winter, so be sure to bring a warmer coat and cotton-padded jacket. In addition, listen to the weather forecast before departure and bring rain gear in case the rainy season comes.
6. Consult the prices of private cars, travel agencies and tour guides:
If there are only three people in your party, then I suggest you choose to rent a private car instead of signing up for a group tour. Because the cost of hiring a private car and a tour guide is similar to that of signing up for a tour. If you choose to rent a private car, you need to know the following information: the time of departure from the hotel, the place to eat, the number of scenic spots you can enjoy on the way, and the time to return to the hotel.
7. Beware of being blackmailed by taxi drivers:
There are all kinds of taxis in Vietnam airport, but in order not to be blackmailed, you'd better book them directly from the hotel. You don't have to pay the toll for cycling, so if your driver asks you to pay the toll, you can refuse it directly. In addition, drivers in Vietnam pay little attention to traffic rules. You should always remind drivers not to talk on the phone while driving, because talking on the phone while driving is likely to cause drivers to go in the wrong lane and consume more gasoline, which means you have to pay more fares. Most importantly, there are still security risks when driving and talking on the phone.
