The denominations range from 1,000 VND to 500,000 VND, with a mix of smaller paper bills and larger polymer bills. If you find the numbers overwhelming, a helpful tip is to mentally remove three zeros to simplify the value.

Actually in Vietnam, the weather is divided into 3 different regions: North, Central, and South.

But they all have 1 similar feature, which is divided into 2 seasons of pleasant and harsh weather. Regarding the tourist season, there will be a suitable period for international tourists to Vietnam (inbound) and a suitable period for domestic tourists (domestic).

From October to mid-April, it will be the time of winter and spring in the North and the dry season in the South. Although it is winter, Northern Vietnam is also the lowest at about 10-15 degrees Celsius, still quite warm for European tourists. and the South is dry, not rainy, and hot like summer. And the year-end period is also the holiday period for European and American tourists...so this is the peak season of Vietnam tourism for the Inbound market, this is also nice, dry weather.

As for summer, from May to September. This will be Summer in the North and Rainy season in the South. The temperature can be up to 37-40 degrees Celsius, and hot and humid air is uncomfortable. But it is the peak tourist season for Vietnamese summer vacations. The beaches are always packed with tourists, crowded scenes take place everywhere. However, this will be the low season for foreign inbound visitors to Vietnam

In some bustle cities such as Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh, or Da Nang, the first impression of any foreign tourist when they reach is messy traffic. The streets are mixed with cars, coaches, buses, motorbikes, taxis, bikes...And it seems there is no way to cross the road in safety.

=> Tips: Just take a deep breath (joke), put your hand up to show a signal and SLOWLY WALKING to cross the road. Other traffic will see you and keep away from you amazingly.

=> Do not: RUN or move fast when you cross the road.

In contrast to several other nations, tipping is uncommon in Vietnam. However, if you want to express gratitude for a great experience, you can send a little money to servicers.

If you are a lover of the natural beauty of the massive high mountains and the blue sea, then visit Halong Bay, Phu Quoc Island, Ly Son Island.

If you love a little old-fashioned beauty, Hanoi, Hue, and Hoi An are great choices for you. Besides, there are other wonderful places such as Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Nha Trang, etc that will bring you a great experience.

The safest measure when crossing the street in Vietnam is to cross the street when the traffic light is green for pedestrians and vehicles have stopped. However, if you cross a street where there are no traffic lights, here are some tips for you:

● Use designated pedestrian crossings: Whenever possible, look for pedestrian bridges or pedestrian markings and use them when crossing the streets.

● Attention and adjustment: When crossing the street, you need to take a moment to analyze the traffic flow to find the right time to cross the road and adjust your speed.

● Do not run when crossing the road. The tip is to start crossing gently and keep a steady, slow pace. You need to avoid sudden movements, which can surprise motorists, make them unable to judge your direction to give way, and lead to an accident.

English is a popular language in Vietnam. The reason is that people learn English in school, and shop owners in tourist places also have basic English skills. However, you should use simple words and sentences because the level of English proficiency may vary among different people.

In Vietnam, there are many common ways to get around, including motorbikes, trains, buses, taxis, and cyclos.

● Motorbikes: Due to their ease of use and cost in navigating through traffic, motorbikes are the most popular mode of transportation, particularly in cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.

● Train: Long-distance travel on trains is common, and overnight sleeper trains provide comfort and beautiful scenery.

● Bus: Within Vietnam, buses are frequently utilized for both short and long-distance travel, offering a cost-effective choice.

● Taxis and ride-hailing: For point-to-point transportation, taxis, and ride-hailing services like Grab are widely accessible in cities and tourist destinations.

● Cyclos: For quick journeys or local exploration, the cyclo, which is a three-wheeled bicycle with a seat up front, is a popular option. It is also a cultural beauty of this country.

But Summer is a bit hot around 30-35 degrees, but it is flowers, fruits, beaches seasons, blue sky, and blue seas, so it is ideal for a Summer beach holiday too.

Own one of the most beautiful beaches on the planet:
That is My Khe beach in the central city, Da Nang. Voted by Forbes magazine in 2006 along with 5 other beaches around the globe.
The world's largest natural cave:
It has ever been discovered, which is Son Doong cave in Quang Binh, discovered by people when they went to the forest to shelter from the rain. And was discovered by the Royal British Explorers Association 30 years. According to them, Son Doong is the treasure of the world.
Casinos are illegal:
Casino or gambling does not allow Vietnamese to play. And they are not allowed to gamble in any way. However, it still happens every day in illegal forms.
One of the few countries that like to take a nap:
Different from the West, Vietnamese people spend a lot of time napping and nap time is up to hours. especially office staff. According to them, if you don't take a nap, your afternoon work will be ineffective.
Very low-cost phone charges and WIFI charges:
You can order a cup of coffee and get free WIFI for half a day. Even the sidewalk iced tea shop has free WIFI.
Most popular sport:
The main national sport is Football. However, the national championship is not of high quality. People only like the national team to compete, and the biggest rival of the Vietnamese national football team in the region is the Thailand team.
Traffic in the city is always very chaotic. Cars go in the lanes of motorbikes, motorbikes go on the sidewalks of pedestrians. Crossing the road is also a huge challenge for international tourists when coming to Vietnam, even with light traffic.
Motorcycles are the main means of transport for the people of this country. However, cars are becoming more popular even though they are still extremely taxed items.

Family name: Nguyen:
The Nguyen family name in Vietnam accounts for more than 40% of the country's population (100 million - 2023). But usually, people have nothing to do with each other by lineage. Nguyen was also the last dynasty of Vietnam, which ended in 1945, at which time Hue City was the capital.
The world's most used social network (Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok…):
It is a fact that young Vietnamese people use social networks the most in the world, an average of up to 7 hours a day. This is a very high number compared to other countries in the region because Vietnam's population is only nearly 100 million people.
Vietnamese people are very friendly and smiley.
They always welcome foreigners, no matter where they come from, or what continent they are. They always aim to help strangers when in trouble, especially foreigners.
Having bath:
Vietnamese people usually do not bathe in the morning, they usually bathe in the evening
Teenagers's hobbies:
They love Korean food, music, hairstyles, and clothes. they like the style called Luxury and like to use high-tech devices such as Surface laptops, iPhones, smartwatches…
The Vietnamese language:
It is really complicated, there are meanings expressed in 10 different words. So my advice is that learning Vietnamese is not a good idea for foreigners.
Gathering habit:
Vietnamese people do not like restraint, prefer open space, and prefer to sit at sidewalk cafés rather than luxury restaurants. A beer on the sidewalk is also more inspiring than in a restaurant.
Helmet uses:
Vietnamese people wear helmets not to be safe on the road, but to avoid being fined by the traffic police. And of course, many helmets are not qualified for protection.
Parent and children:
It is still quite common for elderly parents to live in the same house with their children. Children are responsible for taking care of their parents in their old age. Parents can give their children all the wealth they have. In the old days, it was customary to give more boys or give them all. Today, girls will also be given or given equally to boys.
