About Vietnam, in the eyes of literary youth, it is "Lovers" written by Dulas , and Anne's Baby's "Rose Island". This exotic land is mysterious, passionate, literary, and full of warm sunshine everywhere! The picturesque scenes in the Hollywood movie "Kong Skull Island" once again attracted the attention of the world.
The impression of seeing Vietnam for the first time
As a former French colony, colonial culture can be seen everywhere here-coffee and baguette are closely related to the lives of Vietnamese. However, Vietnam is also deeply influenced by Chinese culture. Chinese characters are written everywhere in the streets, alleys, temples and ancestral halls. The Manchu cheongsam evolved into a fashionable Shanghai-style cheongsam in China, and in Vietnam it evolved into a graceful Ao Dai in the girls. Vietnam is connected with Chinese landscapes, with similar cultures and customs. Sometimes Chinese culture is well preserved in Vietnam. This is a magical country.
