Last trip to Vietnam happened in 2013. It was a wonderful trip that opened my eyes of South Asia.
2013年的秋天，我去了越南的河内。那是个难忘的旅程，那是我第一次到东南亚，心情极为激动。
Border 边境
They said, cross the river, there is Vietman.
他们说，过了河，便是越南。
Food 饮食
NO.1: Vietman Little Rice Noodle 越南小卷粉
Love these little rice noodle rolls! It is kinda like the burrito, but instead of using flour skins, they use rice skins. The rice noodle skins are very thin and fresh! You could choose different meats, greens, and sauces. I like the mushroom with chicken the best!
挚爱越南小卷粉! 细细的米粉皮是我的挚爱，越南菜比云南菜更加合适我的口味，你可以按照自己的喜好，像吃海底捞一样，做自己喜爱的酱料，挚爱那些酱油、香菜和葱的调和物，可谓人间极品！因为是个冬菇爱好者，所以，常常点冬菇鸡肉的小卷粉！
NO. 2: Noodle Soup 汤河粉
Noodle soup is my favor whenever and wherever! I found that Vietnam noodle soup is very similar to Canton noodle soup. I was super happy when I was in Hanoi last time!
汤粉真心是我的最爱啊，无论在何时、何地，我对汤粉都是忠贞不二、一心一意。特别是东南亚的汤粉，他们的汤也是讲究鲜，跟广东人的饮食习惯很靠近。区别是，东南亚还可以自己加那么多的豆芽柠檬，和薄荷，每次点他们的汤粉，我都十分高兴。
NO 3：French Food 法餐/西餐
French people brought their food cultures to Vietman, expecially, sandwich and coffece. Ice coffece in Vietman is very famous. Besides, French also used Vietman as a colony for growing cocoa , and the raw and processed materials for making perfum. Therefore, some people believe that perfum make in Vietnam is as good as make in France.
法国殖民越南年间，把很多法国文化一同带入。法国人在越南种植可可豆，还有一些香水原材料。传说，法国的香水那么出名，是因为越南的气候得天独厚，能种出很优质的原料。当时西贡（今日的胡志明市）有很多法国人，而且当时香水业比较繁盛，所以，西贡的香水远近驰名，很多香水瓶都制成西贡小姐的形状，名字也叫做“西贡小姐”。此外，越南因为气候比较炎热，所以比较爱喝冷饮，法国人把咖啡文化带到越南，越南人就爱上了冰咖啡，冰咖啡在越南也很有名。
NO 4：Street Food 大排档
Street food in Vietnam is very "prosperous"! Tasty and Tasty! Vietnamese like sour and sweet food just as Cantonese.
越南的大牌档简直绝了，要那多，有那么多，款式多样，各有各的特色。那个酸酸的菜炒牛肉真的好好吃。油豆腐也是甜酸酱炒的。最爱的椰子洁哩真的一吃就丢魂啊！怎么长那么大，才知道有那么好吃的东西存在？在大椰子国——大海南呆了那么多年，都没有发现过这个椰子洁哩！
NO 5：Street Sell 路边摊
Vietman still has certain poor people. These people need to sell in street for living. They could be some cute little boys and girls with a smiling mom. They could also be a old short woman or man with warm wrinkly smile.
越南还是一个比较贫困，物资分布不均匀的国家。在河内这样的一个大城市，我们还是可以看见，很多贫苦的百姓，辛辛苦苦，早出晚归地为了生存而工作。即使白发苍苍，皱纹盖脸，也得依旧为一日三餐而奔波。
Local 乡土人文
NO 1: Villages 乡土
Village restaurants near the road. In Vietnam, most houses are very slim and long, just like the body shapes of Vietnamese girls.
乡村小餐馆。人们都说越南的房子形状又瘦又长，就像越南姑娘的身材一样。
Little Stores in Village 乡村小卖部
Corners of Village 乡村一角
W.C. in Village 乡村茅厕
NO 2：City 城市 ： Hanoi 河内
In South Asia, outsiders call these taxi bikes: " Tutu". By this Tutu, it is convenient and cheap to go somewhere nearby. However, I always feel bad to have an old man giving me a ride. These old men deserve better lives.
去过东南亚的欧洲人都叫这三轮车“Tutu”。这种古老的三轮车是东南亚十分普遍的交通工具，相当于我们的摩托车和出租车。但是，每次我看到一个老人辛苦地踩着这卖力的三轮车，挣得几个钱维持生活时，黑暗便立刻笼罩着我，顿时就会感到十分哀伤。
NO 3： Temples and parks near the streets. 路边的寺庙和公园。
Public Park near the road. 路边的公园。
Vietmanese girls in the park. 公园里的越南姑娘。
Vietnam still has many buildings with Chinese characters, especially at parks, museums, and temples.
越南还是有很多写着汉字的建筑物，特别是在公园、博物馆、还有寺庙里。
NO 4：Corners of city 城市一角
NO 5： Sleepy City : 入睡中的城市
Motorbikes are the major transportation vehicles in Vietnam. 电单车是越南最主要的交通工具。
NO 6： Midnight Hanoi 午夜河内
This bridge is famous because of war and blood. French people came and built this bridge. However, Americans also wanted to share this colony with French. In order to convince French people to share Hanoi with them, the Americans tried to bomb this bridge. However, the bombes were not really hurting the bridge but scratched it a little bit.
（Not Sure if people called it Cầu Long Biên.）
关于这段桥，有个有趣的故事。法国殖民者殖民越南期间建了这座大桥，方便运输。但是美军来了，也想分越南这块肥猪肉一杯羮。为了让法国人学会分享，美国人决定把这座大桥炸掉，以示威严。但是这桥刀枪不入，美国人最终放弃。
(不知道这是不是就是传说中的“龙边桥”。)
