What should I bring with me when I go to Ho Chi Minh City? Things to note when traveling to Ho Chi Minh City

Everyone knows that there are several beautiful places in Vietnam, such as Nha Trang and Mui Ne. Basically everyone knows it without mentioning it, but today I still want to say that Ho Chi Minh City is also very good. You can Be selective about viewing and prepare whichever place is suitable before traveling. Preparation before departure

Visa: There are many visa agents on Taobao. In Guangzhou, you only need to send a passport photo and an electronic photo for the visa. It will be issued in a few days, including shipping fee of 238 yuan. . Since Vietnam has a territorial dispute with China, they do not recognize the map in the Chinese passport, so the visa we got is not affixed to the passport like other countries, but a red visa paper. Therefore, Taobao agents do not need our original passports.

Phone card: There are many choices on Taobao. What I bought was a "Nha Trang Da Nang Ho Chi Minh Phone Card mobifone 7-day Internet Card Data Card". The advantage of this card is that it is plug-and-play. You can plug it in after getting off the plane and use it without any other settings. But the disadvantage is that you can't make calls, and you can't continue to recharge after the charge is exhausted. The 3G signal is but unstable. The supplier provided simple instructions when shipping, and also made its shortcomings clear. The price is cheap, 42.8 yuan. Based on the situation I encountered in Vietnam, it is recommended to buy a device that integrates Internet access and phone calls. Although it is more expensive, it is easy to use. The reason will be discussed later.

International roaming: Domestic mobile phone cards are enabled for international roaming, making it easy to contact in case of emergencies.

Hotel confirmation form: electronic version, generally required by hotels when checking in.

Ticket itinerary: electronic version is sufficient.

My air tickets and hotels were all booked on Ctrip. There are many agents. Sometimes the airline tickets on the official website will be cheaper. You can take the time to pay attention and you can save a lot of money.

UnionPay card: UnionPay card with chip (debit card or credit card with cash withdrawal function). The old magnetic stripe card cannot be used at ATMs in Vietnam. I use magnetic stripe cards at the airport ATMs. The machine cannot recognize it.

Overseas insurance: When traveling abroad, it is still necessary to buy yourself an insurance. It is compulsory in European countries. I bought it on Allianz, 38. It's cheap, but has less protection. You can buy it according to your own needs. All insurance companies have this kind of short-term overseas insurance.

Power bank: It’s very painful when your phone runs out of power at a critical moment. I used to travel with two people without it, but this time I found that it’s really not possible without one.

50 times sunscreen and aloe vera gel: The sun in Vietnam is very strong, especially the ultraviolet rays at the beach. Preventing and treating sunburn is essential. Some men who don’t take it seriously also need it, otherwise it will be inevitable. Sunburn.

App: Google Maps, Dianping. The former is used for navigation and the latter is used for finding delicious food.

Qingyoutang public account: You can buy tickets on your behalf. The purchase fee for a ticket is about 5RMB. Even if you don’t buy it, you can still know the transportation timetable.

Sunglasses: The sun is too glaring, especially if you plan to ride a motorcycle.

Umbrella: If you go to Vietnam during the rainy season (May-October), it may rain at any time, so take one with you to protect yourself from the rain. Of course, it doesn’t matter if you are not afraid of being soaked like a dog.

Swimsuit: Many hotels have swimming pools, which are also a must when going to the beach.

Coat: If you go to Dalat, you must bring long sleeves and trousers, and a slightly thicker jacket. There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening, especially after rain. In October, the locals Wearing cotton clothes.

Personal toiletries: The quality provided by the hotel is average, at least a toothbrush and toothpaste for men, shampoo, shower gel, etc. for women, and a soap for washing clothes (you sweat every day, and your clothes must smell). You can also buy it at your local supermarket.

Commonly used medicines: cold medicines and gastrointestinal medicines. Don’t use too much to avoid trouble in passing. Besides, we are only taking precautions and may not be able to use them. Practical

Passing through customs: It is very easy to pass through customs in other countries as long as the passengers do not carry contraband. But Vietnam is a torturous place. Many friends who have been or plan to go must know that Vietnam customs asks for tips. I once saw a post saying that when queuing, try not to line up with Chinese people. I don’t agree, because your passport has already decided. The only good way is to queue up and find a team that moves quickly. If you encounter everyone who has been in ink for a long time, resolutely change teams. When you encounter someone who asks for a tip, you should refuse without being humble or condescending, otherwise you will become more indulgent and fucked up.

Don't be too tough and cause trouble for yourself, after all, people are confident.

OpenBus: There are three OpenBus companies in Vietnam, New Coffee, Han Coffee, and FUTA. The quality of Xincai's cars is very poor, FUTA is the best. New Coffee does not have a pick-up service, while Han Coffee and FUTA do. However, please note that in Nha Trang and Dalat, there is only pick-up and no delivery. This means that we will pick you up at your hotel, but the destination is the bus station, and there is no shuttle bus to take you to the hotel. When in Mui Ne, FUTA was delivered to the door of your hotel, because there is only one coastal road, and the bus destination just passes your hotel.

Taxi: If you often take taxis in Vietnam and never come across a black taxi, it means you are a very good person. However, you should also burn incense to thank the Buddha for his blessing when you return. Ho Chi Minh is the most chaotic, followed by Nha Trang, then Dalat and Mui Ne are the best. There is only one road in Mui Ne, and it will be better if tourism development matures. The best suggestion is to rent a motorcycle if you can. If not, you can take the bus, and then walk. If you really need to make a call, find someone with a phone in the car, clearly indicate the bymeter, turn on the navigation, and have change ready. Otherwise, change is often given or given less.

Safety: The safety in Ho Chi Minh City is very poor, but the other three places are okay. When going out at night, especially girls, you should follow the crowd, take the main road (don't take side streets to save time), and stay away from the road. It's best not to go out at night. It would be too troublesome if it was robbed. People in our group saw with our own eyes that two girls were robbed on the side of the road in Ho Chi Minh around 9pm.

Air tickets: After I came back, I looked at some cheap air tickets. On Jetstar Airlines flying from China to Ho Chi Minh City, some fares were as cheap as 148. After I was optimistic about it, I made a decisive move.
