<p><strong>Choosing where to go for your first-ever international trip is practically the equivalent of choosing where to go on your honeymoon: It’s a ~very significant~ decision that you’ll remember forever and ever. (No pressure or anything!)</strong></p>
<p>But seriously, your first trip abroad is a biggie for a million reasons, not least because it’ll be your first time experiencing a culture outside of your own. That means you’ll want your destination to hit all the standard requirements – great food, a wide range of interesting stuff to do, beautiful scenery – but you’ll also want it to be foreigners-welcome spot.</p>
<p><strong>1. The people are awesome and friendly.</strong></p>
<p>Once you’ve got a couple international trips under your belt, you’ll probably be cool with handling less-than-pleasant locals. But on your first trip abroad, there will already be so many other new things happening around you that it’ll be way easier to not have to worry about rude or standoffish locals – which is why Vietnam is a great place to start your journeys.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.intrepidtravel.com/adventures/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Intrepid-Travel-Vietnam_Ho-Chi-Minh_Ryan-Bolton4449.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>For starters, I found the people I spoke with to be very open and friendly. Actually, “spoke” is a strong word – it was more like the people I “gestured” with, as I don’t speak Vietnamese, and not everyone there speaks English, but still. I usually ended up pointing to things I wanted to buy, like a banh mi from a street vendor, and even though we didn’t exchange words, we exchanged knowing glances and smiles – and we were golden. I also found that going out to eat was a fun experience in Vietnam. Our restaurant servers, many of whom spoke much more English than the street vendors, generally enjoyed chatting with and taking care of my group, and they were also proud to teach us about their food and lifestyle.  </p>
<p><strong>2. Speaking of food, Vietnamese eats are absolutely, positively delicious.</strong></p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.intrepidtravel.com/adventures/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Intrepid-Travel-vietnam_ho-chi-minh-city_food_noodles_3777.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Everything was so delicious and fresh, and filled with distinctive Vietnamese flavours, that I couldn’t help but think about what to eat for the next meal while I was eating the current one.</p>
<p><strong>3. There are tons of incredible things to do and see.</strong></p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.intrepidtravel.com/adventures/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Intrepid-Travel-Vietnam-hue-citadel-pax-walk-4327.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>One of the best parts about Vietnam is that matter who you go there with – including just yourself, if that’s how you roll – you will no doubt find something that you love there. And that’s because there is simply a huge variety of activities.</p>
<p>Are you a beach bum? Head to the coastal city of Tuy Hoa, which has insane stretches of sand and lots of good snorkelling. Are you a history buff? Check out Hue, an historic citadel with lots of places to visit (spotlight on all of the tombs). What about adventure? Play around in the caves of Phong Na or Cat Ba Island, both of which are loaded with beautiful natural scenery. I could go on, but you get the point. Whether you’re into adventure travel, or more of a history buff, or a foodie, or a beach bum, or whatever type of traveller you are… Vietnam’s got you. Bigtime.</p>
<p><strong>4. It’s affordable.</strong></p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.intrepidtravel.com/adventures/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Geckos-Adventures-vietnam_ho-chi-minh-city_night-market-group-2.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>If you’re looking to travel on a budget, this is one of the best spots for you. For starters, the country is really big on the backpacker’s circuit, which is usually a good indicator that it’s got some affordable options. But perhaps most importantly, the major travel essentials – accommodation, food, and public transport – are all fairly affordable, so you may even end up spending much less than you’d think. It’s important to remember that Vietnam is still a developing country, so things will cost less than they do at home.</p>
<p><strong>5. The weather is great.</strong></p>
<p>Because Vietnam is a very long country (1,000 kilometres in length), the weather varies by region and spans many different climate zones. The cool part about that is that ultimately, Vietnam is a guaranteed year-round destination as a result; somewhere in the country will be nice at all times. Here’s a basic breakdown of the weather by region.</p>
<p><em>North Vietnam (including Hanoi and Halong Bay):</em><br />
The winter lasts from November to April, when the temperatures range from 17 to 22 degrees Celsius. Summers, which last from May to October, are a lot warmer; temperatures can rise to 37 degrees Celsius, though it’s also the rainy season.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.intrepidtravel.com/adventures/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Intrepid-Travel-Vietnam-halong-bay-boat_3885.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>Central Vietnam:<br />
This region has a really long dry season, from January to August, with temperatures often averaging in the mid-30s (really nice). The rainy season runs from October to December.</p>
<p>South Vietnam:<br />
Only 8 degrees north of the Equator, South Vietnam is basically the tropics. Though it definitely has a rainy season (May to November) and a dry season (late February to April), the temperature remains constant, at around 30 degrees Celsius all year round.</p>
<p><strong>6. The public transportation is easy enough (and a good way to experience the local culture).</strong></p>
<p>Chances are, when you think of Vietnam, you think of scooters (motorbikes). In populated cities like Ho Chi Minh City, they’re literally everywhere (it can be hard to even cross the street without feeling like you’re going to get hit by one!). And while the more adventurous travellers may want to rent one of those motorbikes to get around, there are also less-adventurous, but still totally fun, options, like motorcycle taxis and cyclos (three-wheel bicycle taxis). Pro tip: If you’re in a more chilled-out city, like Hue, taking a cyclo can be really fun. But they’re a lot slower, so if you just want to get around quickly, opt for a motorcycle taxi.</p>
<p>For longer journeys, the trains in Vietnam are convenient and comfortable, especially the overnight ones. Most backpackers end up taking the train from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City, which takes about 30 hours. But if you book an overnight train, you can sleep through most of it; the cabins have air conditioning and are generally pretty comfortable. The buses are generally okay too, though most travelers end up using them for shorter trips within cities.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" src="https://www.intrepidtravel.com/adventures/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Geckos-Adventures-vietnam_mekong-delta_canoe-group-landscape.jpg" alt="" /></p>
<p>No matter where you go or what you do, make sure to spend some time on a boat too. Vietnam offers all sorts of boat tours, including the famous tour of Halong Bay, and lots of other boat tours to cave-heavy areas. Taking a river tour along the Mekong Delta, where you’ll see local fishing villages and general scenic beauty, is also a must.</p>
<p>In the end, though, while you can certainly plan out a rough itinerary for your trip, the best way to experience Vietnam is to just go with an open mind, and let the country – the people, the food, the beauty – speak for itself.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><strong>All people around the world are fighting against the Covid19 pandemic, and while it is such a challenging time, there’s no doubt the world will overcome it. As with all past outbreaks, this one will eventually come to an end.</strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><strong>And the best way to fight is to keep hope, to look forward to the future. Thus, one of the most asked questions right now would be “what is your plan after the pandemic is over?”. And the most of the answers  share would be “I want to travel!”</strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5958" src="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/van-long-nature-reserve-Rubicontours-1.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="794" srcset="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/van-long-nature-reserve-Rubicontours-1.jpg 1200w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/van-long-nature-reserve-Rubicontours-1-300x199.jpg 300w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/van-long-nature-reserve-Rubicontours-1-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/van-long-nature-reserve-Rubicontours-1-768x508.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em><strong>In case you haven’t settled on a plan yet, let us convince you why a holiday should be the first and also the best thing to do after the pandemic:</strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>To treasure the value of life and people important to you</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5616" src="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/49523782_798442223838343_8578352684405358592_n.jpg" alt="" width="900" height="603" srcset="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/49523782_798442223838343_8578352684405358592_n.jpg 900w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/49523782_798442223838343_8578352684405358592_n-300x201.jpg 300w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/49523782_798442223838343_8578352684405358592_n-768x515.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Watching the news and experiencing the hardship brought by the pandemic, we all come to realize how our life can be easily affected by an event, and a pandemic has definitely caused massive changes for each of us. But from a positive aspect, the pandemic is our chance to treasure our life more, and if you’ve spent a significant amount of time for work, it is time to take care of yourself and the people important to you with a holiday to a new land.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A holiday is the best way to reward yourself for overcoming such a hard time. A holiday is also the best way to celebrate once the pandemic is over and to spend quality time with your friends and families. We sometimes forget to show our love to people important to us and get too indulged in work and other issues, so use this opportunity to strengthen the bonds and let those around know how important they are to you!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Remember: “<em>It’s not about where you are, but who you are with</em>.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Travel allows you to take care of your kids and parents, and create memories with your loved ones. A holiday to a new destination means you can all explore things together, learn about a new culture together, and laugh together.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>To refresh and to grow</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5609" src="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/11031999_923094964452707_603566572424904280_n.jpg" alt="" width="960" height="960" srcset="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/11031999_923094964452707_603566572424904280_n.jpg 960w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/11031999_923094964452707_603566572424904280_n-300x300.jpg 300w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/11031999_923094964452707_603566572424904280_n-150x150.jpg 150w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/11031999_923094964452707_603566572424904280_n-768x768.jpg 768w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/11031999_923094964452707_603566572424904280_n-120x120.jpg 120w" sizes="(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Once you are on a holiday, you will see how much your body and mind actually need it. A holiday is basically a ‘refresh’ button because we tend to pile up the stress from our work and daily life, and as the pandemic comes, we all have to live through a time of confusion and anxiety. When this hard time has passed, think about putting all the burden aside and focusing on yourself.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you are in for a relaxing holiday, book a trip to one of the idyllic beaches in Southeast Asia, you can go swimming, snorkeling, play volleyball, hop on a boat to see the near islands, or simply enjoy a nice sunbath with a cocktail in hand. For party-goers, Hanoi and Ha Long Bay (Vietnam), Ho Chi Minh City (Vietnam), Kuta (Bali), Sihanoukville (Cambodia), are destinations known for their nightlife.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">An adventure is not only the chance to stretch your muscles, but one can also gain too much more from it. Travelling can teach you more than any university course, and the knowledge that you’ve learned, you will bring them with you for the rest of your life. Each destination is a once-in-a-lifetime lesson about people, about the history and about stories that you’ve never been told back at home.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Leaving your comfort zone behind as you travel, enjoying a dish you haven’t heard of from the menu, trying a local sport or practicing a foreign tradition, … there are various ways of ‘learning’, but those you can only gain by seeing other parts of the world. When you don’t understand something, ask people, make friends, talk to those around you, keep yourself curious about the world as you travel!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>“One learns more from traveling a thousand miles than from reading a thousand scrolls.”</em></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>To see nature when it recovers</strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-5086" src="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/The-Fairy-Stream-Phan-Thiet-6-1.png" alt="" width="800" height="500" srcset="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/The-Fairy-Stream-Phan-Thiet-6-1.png 800w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/The-Fairy-Stream-Phan-Thiet-6-1-300x188.png 300w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/The-Fairy-Stream-Phan-Thiet-6-1-768x480.png 768w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/The-Fairy-Stream-Phan-Thiet-6-1-270x169.png 270w" sizes="(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Although the pandemic is impacting our life negatively, nature is, on the other hand, using this time to recover. The halt of human activities and transport has lead to a huge drop in pollution, from 20-30% in some regions. Also, destinations like forests, beaches, mountains,… are seeing the comeback of wild animals and plants. In India, sea turtles are seen nesting on the beach for the first time after 20 years, or the fish and dolphins are retuning to the canals of Venice (Italy).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The break from human activities means that by the time of your next holiday, you are likely to witness more pristine landscapes, especially with destinations that are famous for their nature.<br />
Not only that, travelling after the pandemic will also be more enjoyable since you can avoid the usual crowds. Imagine taking in the breathtaking view of Halong Bay (Vietnam), walking around the whole massive ground of Angkor Wat (Cambodia), or lying on the stunning beach of Koh Phi Phi (Thailand), without heaps of people, we are sure you’ll find this suggestion incredibly tempting!</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>To enjoy big promotions and quality services</strong></p>

<p>The tourism industry has suffered because of the Covid-19, but it will bounce back when countries have overcome the pandemic, meaning you can expect to catch the best deals right afterward. So you may want to start planning a trip for the summer or the end of the year from now!</p>
<p>Even though businesses are affected, the pandemic is also seen as a chance for companies to renovate their infrastructure as well as to create future products. Once the tourism industry ‘reboots’ again, businesses will not only focus on their prices, but also on the quality they offer to customers. Airlines can offer flights with much more affordable prices than before the pandemic, so people can travel on a lesser budget. Accommodations may introduce better deals and be more flexible with future bookings. For tour operators like RUBICON TOURS, VIETNAM, we are working to build more special tours to serve our customers, with new destinations added to our itineraries.</p>
<p>For staff working in the tourism industry, we are all looking forward to welcoming travelers as soon as the pandemic is gone. Because providing unique experiences to new destinations is not only our career, but it is our passion, what enhances our work every day, whether we are doing our best from the office, as your drivers, tour guides or staff that you may meet at your hotel.</p>
<p><b>No doubt about it, people will definitely travel after the coronavirus. But how? Here are a few tips for traveling after the coronavirus outbreak<br />
</b><br />
<b>Look for great deals but focus on value.<br />
</b>Instead of looking for the cheapest price, I would suggest you looking for the best value. There are going to be plenty of high-value travel packages. Do not hesitate to book if you find a bargain for late spring, summer, or Christmas time 2020 when the outbreak is over. But please don’t focus exclusively on price. Instead, look at the overall value of the deal. That’s why our company, Indochina Pioneer, always tell our customer what we want to bring to them: VALUE &amp; LIFETIME EXPERIENCE.</p>
<p><b>Focus on well-known and longevity brands<br />
</b>Stay away from too-good-to-be-true offers from unknown operators. Too risky! Just research and focus on well-known brand companies on trip advisor, trust pilot to hear what other people talk about those ones. Honestly, during this crisis time, many travel companies are trying to keep their heads above the water. Coronavirus will almost certainly claim several well-known travel brands, according to experts. So it is very crucial for you to contact a well-known company that are financially stable.</p>
<p><b>Should never travel without a professional travel advisor behind<br />
</b>Reading about places to go is fun — but planning a trip after the outbreak is hard work, especially when you are busy getting back to normal life and you never know what to believe. Therefore, having a professional help an have a big impact on how much you spend on — and how much you enjoy — your vacation. Travel Experts can answer your questions quickly and correctly from the size of the rooms in hotels and cruise ships to the dining options on-site and nearby. You just need to share what you want, what you expect, they will tailor-make a perfect trip for your family.</p>
<p>Bottom line: Travel will continue after the Covid-19 outbreak. The industry will return sooner than you think, and with some great deals.</p>
<p><em><strong>So once we are back to normal life and ready for new adventures, we hope to welcome you with the best services and smiling faces. Indochina Pioneer are invested in our clients’ happiness and satisfaction and want to make sure each and every trip is packed full of positive lifelong memories especially when we are going through this virus crisis together. It is really special for you, for me and for all of us. We will listen, suggest, adjust, understand and become a friend … not just a search engine or an anonymous voice. We are always with you before, during and after your trip.</strong></em></p>
<p><em><strong> In the meantime, stay safe and healthy!!</strong></em></p>

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><em>Vietnam is a nation always on the move. Look away for a moment, and a business pops up, a new experience breaks ground, a route appears where there was none before. In 2019, travellers to Vietnam have more options than ever before, and it only gets better from here. Below are seven inspired ways to get to know Vietnam now.</em></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #800000;"><strong>PLAN AN URBAN GETAWAY</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Countrysides are nice, but Vietnam’s cities are flourishing at a pace that simply can’t be ignored. For a hit of the energy that has the country in its sway, plan a long weekend in <a href="https://rubicontours.com/tour/hanoi-sapa-valley-tour-cat-cat-village-and-ham-rong-mountain-4-days-3-nights/">Hanoi</a>, <a href="https://rubicontours.com/tour/sai-gon-cu-chi-tunnel-3-days-2-nights/">Ho Chi Minh City</a> or <a href="https://rubicontours.com/tour/da-nang-hoi-an-3-days-2-nights/">Da Nang</a>. What you find might surprise you: modern Vietnamese kitchens, trendy rooftop bars, hole-in-the-wall boutiques, contemporary art galleries, and craft beer houses wait around each corner. Grab a <em>ca phe </em>and enjoy the non-stop action.</p>
<p><strong><a href="https://rubicontours.com/tour/daily-tour-1-day-danang-ba-na-hill-golden-bridge/">Da Nang 1 Day Tour</a></strong></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;">EXPERIENCE ETHNIC CULTURE IN A HOME STAY</span></strong></span></p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2255" src="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/hmongethnic.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="450" srcset="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/hmongethnic.jpg 750w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/hmongethnic-300x180.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vietnam’s ethnic homestays  consistently win travellers over with their warm hospitality and excellent value. Here’s the chance to interact with ethnic minorities on a personal level, taste authentic countryside cooking, and bed down in breathtaking locations on a budget. Start your search with homestays in Vietnam’s national parks and reserves such as Pu Luong and Phong Nha, and in Tai and Hmong villages surrounding of Sapa and Mai Chau.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><span style="font-size: 14pt;"><strong>Mai Chau &#8211; Ban Lac Village 02 Days 01 Night</strong></span></span> &#8211;&gt; <span style="color: #ff0000;"><a style="color: #ff0000;" href="https://rubicontours.com/tour/mai-chau-tour-2-days-1-night/">Book now!!!</a></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #800000;"><strong>CHECK YOURSELF IN FOR A WELLNESS RETREAT</strong></span></p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2257" src="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/condao.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="450" srcset="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/condao.jpg 750w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/condao-300x180.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Not many people know it yet, but Vietnam’s central coast is poised to become Asia’s next big wellness destination. Already the spas in the area are snapping up industry awards for thoughtful programs and striking design. HARNN Heritage Spa and Fusion Maia are two pioneers leading the pack, however the zen-like mineral hot springs at Alba Wellness Valley and lagoon-facing villas in Lang Co are worth at least a few nights. Yoga practitioners can make their way to Hoi An, where 200-hour teacher training courses and wellness retreats now take place on an almost monthly basis. Beyond Central Vietnam, the islands of Con Dao and <a href="https://rubicontours.com/tour/phu-quoc-island-sao-beach-island-hopping-rubicon-tours/">Phu Quoc</a> also present amazing world-class wellness breaks.</p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt; color: #800000;"><strong>LEAD UP FOR A VIETNAM MARATHON</strong></span></p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2256" src="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vietnammarathon.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="450" srcset="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vietnammarathon.jpg 750w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/vietnammarathon-300x180.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Who says holidays have to be indulgent? A new crop of marathons and triathlons have sprung up around Vietnam, opening fresh trails to runners from all over. The Vietnam Mountain Marathon is the perfect excuse to spend a few days in the stunning highland town of Sapa, but you’ll find plenty of other options throughout the year, including beachfront races in Da Nang, heritage runs in Hanoi, and more marathons in destinations such as Moc Chau, Ha Long and Ho Chi Minh City.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><span style="font-size: 14pt;">SAMPLE NEW FLAVOURS ON A FOODIE TOUR</span></strong></span></p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-2254" src="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/fruits-in-vietnam-3.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="450" srcset="https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/fruits-in-vietnam-3.jpg 750w, https://rubicontours.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/fruits-in-vietnam-3-300x180.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Vietnam’s delicate, delicious cuisine is reason enough to visit. In 2019, you’ll find contemporary restaurants challenging old ways, and dedicated foodies opening their kitchens and neighborhoods to visitors via personalised tours. Vietnam’s tour operators are embracing the trend, with north-to-south foodie tours that delve deep into Vietnamese culinary philosophy.</p>

<p>When one talks about Mai Chau – Hoa Binh, it’s deficient if we don’t mention the culinary culture here.</p>
<p>These dishes are the essence of Thai ethnicity that you should not miss when traveling there. Let&#8217;s take a look with Rubicon Tours!</p>
<h3 id="Com_Lam__Bamboo-tube_rice_" style="text-align: justify;">Com Lam (Bamboo-tube rice)</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It’s Mai Chau signature dish that every visitor would like to try. The ingredients to make this dish include rice, banana leaves, and bamboo tube. There are also sliced coconut and coconut milk.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bamboo used to make this dish called “Pa Nga” is small and straight. The rice is washed and soaked in water for 2-3 hours and then out into a bamboo tube and grilled.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Thai women must be extremely skilled to be able to make this delicious dish. When baking, you must turn evenly and thoroughly, so that the rice is not blessed or too dull.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The indispensable ingredient when eating bamboo-tube rice is “cham cheo” – a traditional spice of Thai people. In addition, you can eat with sesame salt.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img decoding="async" src="https://cdn.izbooking.com/images/user_25/images/must-try-dishes-in-mai-chau-2.jpg" alt="Must-try dishes in Mai Chau" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Com lam</em></p>
<h3 id="Chicken__Ga_Doi_" style="text-align: justify;">Chicken (Ga Doi)</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Chickens are usually raised by industrial methods by farmers. However, they are fed only a small amount of food each day. They have to run up to the hill to find food by themselves. Therefore, the chicken’s legs are especially delicious. They are not as big as the normal chickens but the meat is firm and fragrant.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The chicken is baked in charcoal without smoke or steamed with lemon leaves. Tearing each piece of chicken along with the “cham cheo” will create excellent taste. The price of baked chicken ranges from 300.00 to 350.000.</p>
<h3 id="Grilled_pork_meat" style="text-align: justify;">Grilled pork meat</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Pigs are fed with food and vegetables without stimulants. The meat is marinated in spices, margins and rinse then grilled on charcoal. The meat is cooked slowly, melted and turned into yellow color. This dish can be eaten with “cham cheo”.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Grilled pork is an attractive option to be enjoyed by many visitors. People choose the best pieces of meat then marinate with a variety of different spices: salt, chili powder, citronella, lime leaves, ginger, turmeric, and vinegar. After 30 minutes, they will grill that meat.</p>
<h3 id="Can_Wine" style="text-align: justify;">Can Wine</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In every Lunar New Year, the people in the village gather around the warm wine jar. According to the Thai tale, Can wine is made by the cleverness of the daughter-in-law.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The alcohol is prepared meticulously with ginger, herbal medicine, fruits and many kinds of forest leaves with oil. The wine is made from grains such as cassava, glutinous rice, berry seeds and nuts.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The ingredients are fermented into the pot or jar. The longer time the wine is, the more delicious it is. People do not drink alcohol from cups or bowls. They use one-meter-long bamboo sticks that are flicked, straightened and pierced through the intestine then bent into the wine bottle.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img decoding="async" src="https://cdn.izbooking.com/images/user_25/images/must-try-dishes-in-mai-chau-3.jpg" alt="Must-try dishes in Mai Chau" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Can wine </em></p>
<h3 id="Stir-fried_bees_with_bamboo_shoots" style="text-align: justify;">Stir-fried bees with bamboo shoots</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Jungle bee and bamboo shoot are two gifts of nature so this perfect combination creates a bold flavor of Mai Chau. At the end of the summer season, the bees harvested by the local people fried with bamboo shoots create the greasy and sweet aroma. The spicy taste makes anyone who has tried once unforgettable.</p>
<h3 id="Mai_Chau_glutinous_rice" style="text-align: justify;">Mai Chau glutinous rice</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After 4-5 hours being soaked and drained, the rice will be put on the pot dropped enough water, covered then boiled. This dish is often cooked on the holidays, festivals and the new rice day.</p>
<h3 id="Sour_meat" style="text-align: justify;">Sour meat</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This dish is like a typical meat salad but has a completely different flavor. The meat here is beef, not the pork as usual.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The processing is more elaborate and needs more materials. The most important thing is the sauce that brings the unique taste of Lac Village.</p>
<h3 id="The_boiled_“man”_pork" style="text-align: justify;">The boiled “man” pork</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">One of the specialties that creates the brand of Mai Chau is the “man” pork. There are many ways to make dishes from “man” pig but the most impressed dish is boiled pork. Those who have tried this food once will never forget it. It is eaten with roasted salt and beans.</p>
<h3 id="Bitter_bamboo_shoots" style="text-align: justify;">Bitter bamboo shoots</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are a lot of bitter bamboo shoots in Mai Chau in the rainy season, so it becomes a popular dish in every meal.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">There are many ways to prepare bitter gourmet dishes such as frying, boiling, stewing or grilling. Anyway, bitter bamboo shoots is still a favorite dish here, a very pleasant experience of this peaceful land.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img decoding="async" src="https://cdn.izbooking.com/images/user_25/images/must-try-dishes-in-mai-chau-4.jpg" alt="Must-try dishes in Mai Chau" /></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Bitter bamboo shoots</em></p>
<h3 id="Grapefruit_leaves_roll" style="text-align: justify;">Grapefruit leaves roll</h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It’s a very simple dish but promises to bring a very unique flavor. This dish is made from pork marinated in the spices and then roll the grapefruit leaves to grill on charcoal.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The ingredients are not too special but it will bring you a very impressive mark of Mai Chau when taking best Mai Chau tour:</p>

If Hanoi has won your heart, and you are in love with the trees and street corners here, then don’t be afraid to set off and explore the elegant beauty through each season of this 1,000 year of civilization capital.</p>
<h3><strong>Hanoi in the spring</strong></h3>

Especially, sometimes there are spring drizzles, which will surely keep the kind hearts paused for a little while and lead it to feel a sense of nostalgia about something that has gone far in the past. Coming to Hanoi around this time, visitors will be able to participate in and learn about traditional festivals or experience folk activities held to celebrate the arrival of spring and Vietnamese New Year</p>

<p>In addition to peach blossom features Hanoi Tet holiday, pristine pure white Sua flowers, purple-colored mountain ebany and red-scented rice flowers competing to bloom in March is also notable characteristics of Hanoi&#8217;s springtime. The streets are full of flowers in succession, making the atmosphere of Hanoi even more joyful and jubiliant.</p>
<h3><strong>Summer of Hanoi</strong></h3>
<p>Someone once said that Hanoi in the summer is very hot-tempered and as sour and scornful as a girl&#8217;s personality. The weather in Hanoi <span style="color: #800000;"><strong>from May onwards until the end of July</strong></span> is actually unfavourable, hot even in the morning and it often rains at the end of the day, making the space very clammy hot and uncomfortable. However, with hot weather, Summer is an ideal time to go on vacation, organizing picnics on the outskirts of Hanoi. Enjoying the fresh cool air blowing up from the lake, from the sea or relaxingly contemplating the picturesque natural scenery are experiences that travelers should definitely try when traveling to Hanoi in the summer.</p>

<p>Particularly, when it comes to Hanoi summer, it is indispensable without mentioning the burning red phoenix flower. It is not difficult to find the majestic red phoenix flowers that permeate the campus of the schools or throughout the streets of Hanoi. In addition, Hanoi Summer will turn more brilliant and elegant in the purple color of queen’s crape-myrtle on the days of May or in the aroma of fragrant lotus, fluttering in the breeze with the typical characteristics of the June.</p>
<h3><strong>Hanoi </strong><strong>in the r</strong><strong>omance</strong><strong> of autumn days</strong></h3>
<p>Referring to Autumn in Hanoi, visitors will immediately imagine the scent of milk flowers, nacre flowers in blue white, sweetly aromatic, blooming throughout every street of Hanoi. Or it would be incomplete in the absence of the scent of green Com with its fragrant aroma and the unique characteristics of young rice grains creeping through every street corner on the street peddles. In this season, Hanoi weather is probably the time when there are a huge number of tourists travelling to Hanoi, since just like Hanoians, everyone else’s heart has been completely stolen by the fantastic weather and especially the poetic beauty of the leaves falling season.</p>

<p>Autumn in Hanoi is the unlimited source of inspiration for many authors&#8217; works , ranging from music, poetry to extremely abundant and unique photography. Unexpected showers frequently pour down  in this time of the year, and the cool mild weather lasts <span style="color: #800000;"><strong>from August to October</strong></span>. Autumn is the time when trees start to have their leaves colors change and then fall unforgetably, creating the romantic landscapes, which misleads the sensitive souls to believe that theu are in a artistic movie scene.</p>
<h3><strong>Hanoi </strong><strong>goes into the wintry seasons</strong></h3>
<p>Hanoi winter is <span style="color: #800000;"><strong>from November to January</strong></span>, the coldest period of the year, and this is also the time when Hanoi wears the quietest appearance. The bitter coldness of the winter makes all daily activities of Hanoi people become more sluggish, less noisy and hustling compared to the busy summer months. In the winter, fog covers the entire sky, and the wet roads are sparse of people.</p>

<p><img decoding="async" src="https://whatsupvietnam.com/upload-images/whatsupvietnam.com-images/Hanoi-and-four-beautiful-seasons-161.jpg" alt="winter" /></p>
<p>Winter travel in Hanoi is indispensable if there cannot be seen the colors of the typical flowers that only bloom in this season such as yellow rape flowers, tiny white daisies gently mingling in the crowd of people on the street. At this time, Hanoi bears a tranquil and ancient magnificence hanging on the streets or on antique bicycles, carrying loads of gorgeous flowers throughout the old streets of lovely Hanoi.</p>
