  • Hai Phong is my new favourite city here in Northern Vietnam the people are so hospitable and kind.
    Theres nothing better than just wandering around the city of Hai Phong and meeting the locals here they are absolute characters. So much fun.
    We were treated so well by the people here I can't recommend a place enough, Hai Phong might be the most underrated place here in Northern Vietnam.
    This is why i love Hai Phong!

    Because Asian countries respect "face" and "giving face" which is essentially a way of giving respect, you address the person's title when speaking to them. When you say hello or goodbye, you address them with a higher title as if they are older than you because age = wisdom which is highly regarded. Try adding uncle (bác or chú) or auntie (Cô). In cases of equal rank, you say (Anh for slightly older brother), (Chị for slightly older sister) or (Em for younger brother/sister). That will gain you even more respect during conversation because it shows good manners. People also like to be flattered though so even if they are obviously an uncle/auntie, you can still say older brother/older sister to indicate that they are still youthful. I know, we're a very contradictory culture hahaha. Try saying "Xin chào Anh" or "Xin chào Chị". You can often drop the "Xin" because that's very formal way of speaking so it becomes more conversational.

    I think Haiphong is the most underrated city in VN. It has a bright future, its old town and its new section is very well laid out with wide sidewalk. Its location gives it tremendous economic and trade wealth while being so close to Halong Bay allows its tourism sector and hospitality sector to grow as well. But I get the distinct feeling that Haiphong authority does not put a lot of resources into tourism promotion, its priority is economic and port industry, for obvious reason. It doesn't get the attention so there are few tourists, even domestic ones, so in the age of social media Haiphong doesn't get the attention it deserves. Its food is awesome so it's a shame. But I guess in a way it's good, VN will have another hidden jewel that it can spring on the world in the future.

    • @EllisWR

    Lived there for 4 years. Toughest and kindest people you'll ever meet. However, the weather will break you: 7 months sauna day and night unbearable humidity April-October, 1 month comfortable November, 2 months December-January freezing winter, then 2 months February-March rain and typhoons. Only one city in ALL SE Asia that doesn't get hot - Dalat Vietnam. Apart from the weather, it is a great city to start a family and take life seriously. And the street food is really good - but be warned, you will see cooked dog at the markets.
