Matters needing attention in traveling to Vietnam for the first time

Due to Vietnam's unique natural scenery and relatively low consumption level, in recent years, traveling to Vietnam has become an ideal place for many mainland tourists to travel for leisure. However, there are still many places to pay attention to when traveling to Vietnam. According to my personal experience, I will sort out this note for friends who plan to go to Vietnam and want to go to Vietnam: preparation before departure: documents: please take all your passports and air tickets with you before departure in case of emergency. Bring your own personal belongings: umbrella, hat, sunglasses, swimsuit, swimming trunks, camera, battery, memory card. Medicine: when you are away from home, you may feel uncomfortable because of acclimatization, weather and other reasons. So you should bring some commonly used drugs, such as wind-dispelling oil, antipyretics, painkillers, medicinal plasters and so on. In case you need them in time. Dress: Prepare clothes according to the season. It is recommended to wear light sports shoes and casual clothes. Vietnam has a subtropical climate with high temperature all year round, heavy rainfall in summer, hot weather in winter and warm and dry climate. Please wear sleeveless clothes when visiting Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. You don't have to wear shorts and skirts in your lower body. Length must be above the knee. Communication: If you need to bring your mobile phone, please open the international roaming function at the local telephone company before you leave. The telecommunications industry in Vietnam and the United States is not as developed as that in China, and the telephone charges are relatively high. During the trip, make as few international calls as possible. Or selling calling cards temporarily in Vietnam, you can use the injection amount and charge a single time (free call). The country code of Vietnam is 0084. To call Vietnam from China, you need to add the country code of Vietnam, and to call China from Vietnam, you need to add China code 0086+ area code+number. Voltage: The voltage in Vietnam is 220V, and the socket is generally round (passengers should pay attention to its applicability if they need to carry electrical appliances, and it is recommended that group members carry universal sockets with them for later use). Currency: The currency unit of Vietnam is the Vietnamese dong, and the exchange rate is about 100 RMB to 300,000-320,000 Vietnamese dong (there will be fluctuations). General stores use Vietnamese dong and US dollars to settle accounts. Renminbi can be used in Halong Bay, but not in other areas (warm reminder: you can't change coins at will in the street to avoid trouble). Vietnam tourism story: 1.

Prepare sun hats and sunglasses at ordinary times. Time: Vietnam is one hour behind Beijing time. 3. Language: Vietnamese is the official language of Vietnam. Cantonese is widely used in Chinatown in northern and southern Vietnam. English is very popular in Vietnam, and some elderly people speak French quite well. The hotel waiter can speak a little Chinese. 4. Accommodation: Vietnam is a socialist country. At present, its economy lags behind China (about 10 years behind China), and it is carrying out reform and opening up. Many star-rated hotels are still a little backward compared with domestic ones, so we should be prepared in this respect. 5. Diet: Vietnamese food is relatively light, but many street snacks with Vietnamese characteristics should be tried one by one. However, pay attention to hygiene. If necessary, it is recommended to bring your own disposable tableware. Don't take valuables with you when Tang goes out, such as jewelry, expensive watches and cash. Please take the hotel profile with you when you leave the hotel, just in case. 7. There are no anti-theft measures for hotel doors and windows in Vietnam.

It's best to walk with a backpack on your side to prevent gangsters from robbing from behind like riding a motorcycle.
