As a famous dish of Hanoi but since appearing on the streets of Saigon Vietnam, the thick white bread sandwiched quickly Grilled people here preferred. Images of carrying bicycles behind a thick bread basket at the entrance to the school, park or street corner that is so familiar with Saigon.

 The cake is a traditional cake of the people of Vietnam, attached to the story of Prince Lang Lieu. White cake made ​​from sticky rice, green beans, generally of two kinds: vegetarian and salt, white sugar cake vegetarian beans, saltine beans diced lard ...
 
The cake is simple, but folk is to make it is not simple at all. Delicious or not, the decision of choosing the rice, sticky rice map. Rice cake is kind of sticky white, plastic aroma soak them, map the sticky. Erosion just smart enough to leave a crust of bread made ​​in the plastic aroma Saigon banh chay.O most common type of white rice cake, small palm. Every two cakes sandwiched a pair and usually served with silk rolls, spring cinnamon ... Unlike in Hanoi Vietnam, Grilled pieces are often quite thick.

When eating bread rolls sandwiched additional piece of silk or rub cinnamon and sprinkle on a little salt and pepper. A bite of the rice cake to feel sticky flavor in each piece of cake, the plasticity of fine aromatic incense mingled with the banana leaf rolls with salty taste of salt and pepper to make the cake more dense charming and delicious.

The Saigon Vietnam Travel in sunny spring

Pulse beautiful beautiful dresses, thousands of people, especially the pair of young men and women ... flock to the spring flower associations in the city to walk, take pictures under the sun weather.
Lunar New Year to Every spring, the streets of Saigon Vietnam filled flower color from a convergence. U.S. presence is everywhere from the home, the street, to the park ... All of them create a fresh spring air.

But after a year people are hard work, most have put aside the daily work to spend time shopping for the New Year, Tet. Besides busy preparing the house cleaning, shopping for the very wealthy New Year, many people also do not forget to plan streets watching the flowers.
Tet, the Assembly flowers in the city always bustling. Remains the most crowded flower market, flower associations in the city center as: Tao Dan Park 23 / 9, United Nguyen Hue street ...
Is the convergence of hundreds of fresh flowers, are decorated in green space filled with a variety of pets, exhibitions, musical theater ... Tao Dan Assembly flowers is always an ideal space to attract more families to enjoy the spring.
From early morning, the family Tuyet Mai (District 11, Saigon Vietnam) chose the perfect outfit for the spring flower market Tao Dan sightseeing cruises. She was the daughter of her mother is for the dress and umbrella do not stop taking pictures.
"I knew today was to walk her gardens, she should remind themselves every day. Early urged parents to prepare maps.

Saigon Vietnam love...

The architecture of religious buildings or highly detailed decorative art has elements of Vietnamese, Cham, Khmer ... The combination of structural, architectural styles, building materials, decorative threads, between the West and East - native and foreign born, making the work in Saigon Vietnam the French have a style of architecture, in particular, is known as the Indochinese architectural style, reflecting the trend of "neo office "of the Western urban architecture during the late 19th - early 20th century in many Asian countries.

As of January 4.2010, the city has 124 works, place the vestige, including: a special national monument (Reunification Palace), 53 national monuments, 70 city-level relics. Systems in landscape relics of an "old Saigon" made "identity Saigon." But now "the identity of Saigon" is dead, by the modern high-rises. Son of Dong Khoi Street is a case like that. This is probably the most popular route and is the oldest of old Saigon Vietnam.
Located in District 1, this path focuses more luxurious hotels, shops, coffee shops, book stores ... has become a cultural destination familiar to several generations of Saigon. Eden Park Corridor with theaters, silk stores, souvenirs, bookstores Spring - Thu, opposite the Opera House is famous Givral coffee shop, but lately it's more famous by the song "Vinh Givral special "- C'est Fini Givral. This song made me remember the romantic drama "Last Summer in Capri" has made the hearts vibrate, but for now it makes more people brimming with tears. A portion of Saigon past no longer exists. Givral and other relics lost, Saigon risk is no longer a city of memories ... I also like people, no one wants to hear "C'est Fini ..." for the cultural heritage left of Saigon.

But Saigon is not only "lost" that has expanded and changed each day. Nhieu Loc and Thi Nghe "well known" black-hour channel is being dredged, embankment, no longer will be the "baby blue channel" flow in the heart of the city. A project on the high road along the canal, with dozens of horizontal bridge will become a "focal point" for the old center of Saigon. District 4 District Khanh Hoi Bridge across the famous "black society" for a while, now the wide streets, spacious homes have popped up.
Nha vast low-lying land of golden coconut candy salty, now eight-lane boulevard between the new urban area Phu My Hung beautiful dream! These village farms the Go Vap, Tan Binh or Hoc Mon, Cu Chi also has a new city. The speed of urbanization in Saigon fairly quickly, the city planning has not kept pace development, and thus avoid confusion, the construction of spontaneous discretion residential development interspersed commercial, industrial ...
Saigon Vietnam now has over 7 million people, mostly people from the country. Through years of hard living, many have understood where I was born to send Me, to send commercial, Saigon is also a day where we can live out their ... If you do too "biased" love for where buried together cut the cord, then our love for Saigon will be fairer, because it is their city, because we also have the Saigon! Saigon better understand, we will identify heavy heart filled with love of the people that outspoken liberal here.
Thirty-five years living in Saigon, Saigon live with, if I may say "my Saigon"? I, as a country. I, as a place for letting me grow up. I, as a passionate romance that quietly faithful all my life ...

Saigon Vietnam - urban ruins

So with over 300 years of Saigon Vietnam - Gia Dinh established administration, compared with more than 3000 years this area of ​​human traces in the oldest, 35 years I lived in Saigon just blinked! I suddenly realized that never once seemed to say love with this city.
Many people have loved, loved Saigon. Maybe this is the place to bury them together cut the cord, where they have to leave home to earn a living and are widely shared Saigon. Maybe a place to leave her first love, where they abandoned the hope one day that always come back ... But for many people, love Saigon Vietnam is hard to express in words, not reasonable for Saigon as a beautiful girl gentle, feminine affection puts people to then say with his love? Saigon offers the look of modern girls, dynamic and simple, a beautiful but shy people often want to speak love ... Many years ago I, too, absorbed remember our beautiful city to any of childhood, so that one day I realized my revenues fell in love with Saigon when unknown ...

My impression is first met bustling Saigon River water filled with large vessels lying close to the Nguyen Hue Boulevard. Wandering the streets are always crowded, towering green trees in the sunshine, sunny girls long dress and white bicycle flying in the wind. The luxury villa is hidden behind a barrier of trees, the bright lights temple lime color ...
Compared with Hanoi or Hue, Saigon seems like a lack of deposition of "soul mountain river thousands of years", because this is a European-style modern city - the United States. But  Saigon Vietnam offers a unique shape urban south "wharf boat". Originally, the assumptions used and the angle of the Saigon River Thi Nghe River. Extending a few kilometers south-west, is Cholon, the majority of the U.S., located on the junction of canals crisscrossed each other, connected by canals of the Saigon River, also known as Tau Hu, Ben Nghe canal. Referring to Saigon, we remember right to market two famous Ben Thanh Market - river towns the most important trade of the Gia Dinh and Cholon - the largest trading hub in Cochin.
Phase formation Ben Nghe - Saigon is a period of rapid melting pot of people from many parts of the community here. The process of reclaiming up incubation, production development ..., save the people have maintained the traditions, customs, beliefs and religions of the new homeland in the land. Houses, pagodas, temples and shrines, clubs ... built in about 300 years to show the diversity and convergence of the cultural communities and spiritual activities of the Vietnamese, the Hoa, Khmer, Cham.
Like many Southeast Asian countries, colonial architecture late 19th century the first half of the twentieth century has left Saigon many architectural heritage of high artistic value. The path taken across the Saigon River divides the city as a standard in the boxes. On the main street offices, business district, hotels, restaurants ... The lane is the residence of world public servants, employees, the beautiful villa, then the rows of terraced houses, deeper in the canyon the neighbors 'home leaves' of employees ... Every few squares have a church-centered spiritual activities. We can see three vertices of the triangle is the center of the city three churches: Our Lady - Tan Dinh District - Si.

Saigon Vietnam own private language

Saigon voice who sometimes express the same sentence, but with much different tone gamut to carry different meanings. Small crowd stirring, against breaking, the sister yelled, his voice slightly and nearly one hour each, a little humor in it "dzui Dzu hen." His friends the same age, generally sit, laugh, a fun accent tall "dzui Dzu hen!" ... People have a habit of Saigon Vietnam or "treatment" tone at the end to saying the word carries a different tone when anger, when the prank as "Hay dzuuuu", "Good dzuuuu ..." Listen to the talk of Saigon, in speech, see "Stop à BLOCKED" "Stop à" quite a lot, as a habit and the "grace" in the voice of Saigon.

The Saigon talk, do not pronounce some words, and the listener or confused sounds "d, v, gi" as well as Hanoi pronounce words with consonants and the first "r" so. Strictly speaking it is wrong, but to write and understand what they did wrong, it's that voice of Saigon Vietnam, the listener is immediately known. Nor that there must be due to the Saigon not really pronounce the words do not anymore, or was due to speak and the word "d, v, gi" was used by the mouth, upon the mouth and with voice Saigon. For example, say "Go play your dzui Dze hen", the Saigon says it ... upon the mouth and more natural than to say "Go play fun hen." Said to be "fun" is still there but feeling rather shy mouth it do that threshold.
The Saigon South in particular and in general, have a habit of using the word "labor" to talk, unlike the North to use the word "yes". May notice that few people speak from Saigon "yes". When someone calls, a Saigon say "yes" is in the shadow of a voice saying that joke, laugh. When talking to my older, less often the buffer between "labor" in every sentence. "Do not eat children? - Yes, not yet! ";" Each site / Dze kid Huh? - Yes, the new baby! "... The" labor "that do not know how the feeling of hearing someone with a Saigon Saigon that it" usually "... that pleasant intimacy, gentle but emotional very much. Feeling it's own compared to other places. Heard a "labor" is that even this name was the South that it would or.
A different domain, be it North or Central, described a short time a few days, said "From that meal to meal," he said, and the Saigon say "today", "walk it" ... people listening will not understand, let alone for that brief seats. (Lai discovered one thing that people in Saigon, or use the word "seat" behind the words to describe a particular feelings. Tiếng "seats" that did not imply anything more, it may mean "many" , is "very". In "Little That [" which means praise her so much.) compares Back from "Today" with "On rails" or hear in the rural South, and an equally significant , but not exactly alike. Saigon hear some use the word "day ray, strokes ..." is the domain of the Saigon River to imitate it. But listening is not the left ear, do not feel forced, as in the Saigon South is still a common substance.
French Saigon is so, if you talk fake accent of Saigon, even if just a few hours, but missed a few cushions, a few hours this own personal Saigon was right ... "you know what side fighting out feet first!"

Say "voice" of Saigon Vietnam

The voice of Saigon Vietnam is not luxury, what was the land as people voice the North, nor quiet, sound bar sound like Hue Neurology, the accent of Saigon to the ear, the heart, in a sense, and so miss People of Saigon and other parts with the sweetness of the South River, with the honest truth nature of ancient traditions, and in both the "nature of Saigon" blood flowing in each of the people of Saigon. Where to go, far away from Saigon, suddenly heard a "Yes" with the word "asthma, choking," found in Saigon as being out front with business in mind ...

There is a walk in a paper read on Saigon - Gia Dinh Nam Son of the writer, has written that his voice Saigon Vietnam, as well as culture and people of Saigon as a blend and fusion of interference to many places . It is the local Cham, Hoa visitors who are central to put family first ... Since then, a kind of language that native people have borrowed to open the land ...
Saigon's voice is considered the voices of the South, as well as the voice of Hanoi considered the voices of the North. Tone accent that is not mixing, not modified the passing of time. As the voices of people talking about Hanoi, it is said to warm accent light, the bass when the scholarship, as sharp as the bar, and no one can deny who speak very good Hanoi and "skilled". The "skilled" as he belongs to the nature of the Ha Noi Ha Noi, only the last has been. To say that people say that Vietnam theater, then only the right to Hanoi "said the song" only, graphics only reasonable voice of the girl Hue Hue is compared with thoughtful new world ... The Saigon von the other, his voice is different Saigon. Not sweet sugar cane back ... as some people southwestern coastal wetland sediment immense carrying nine dragons, not as heavy joskin Southeastern burning flesh, and sweet voice of Saigon, but is so sweet, lighter. That voice "urban" proud of Saigon, and no where to be that although others have also difficult to imitate. It seems that over the years along with Gia Dinh - Saigon vanity in rhythm, in innovation and development, the voice of the people in Saigon had become "noble" than. However, there is a "bar" of a land once the capital of South Vietnam, but did not lose what I do not give up simplicity of the common southern origin.
Human voices are heard Saigon say that instant. Saigon sat two people talking together at a country restaurant, the street or over the phone, they easily recognize. The voice is not as high as people in Hanoi, not as severe as the Chinese, but on its own peer into delirium ... that something special in the way people talk together Saigon is it from "congestion and asthma, appointment" at the end ... The other domain is pleasure, is in love with Saigon because it uses the word "congestion and asthma" is. Visitors to the game, the next owner. Guests on, then let go a laugh saying "Well, I DROPPED plate" - The owner laughed, "Yeah, hen dzay disk image." Speaking on the telephone was born, to the story and hung up, someone said "Red what's more, only dzay hen" "time" here means stop, end, ending something. Two of you talk together, caught something fun, go to her head next to "Make an appointment to the machine?" Comfortable with the tone ...

Saigon Vietnam, the old coffee ...

Saigon has become a "paradise" coffee with a lot of style, rank. The coffee is "drinking" a unique culture of this new land. It is unclear the first cup of coffee mixed in Saigon how, but writer Son Nam problem, this new land had appeared earlier two cafes are owned by the French Lyonnais (now on Ly Tu Trong ) and Café de Paris (on Dong Khoi Street) from 1864. Coffee and gradually formed a cultural flow, your negative, intimates of many layers of Saigon Vietnam ...
When the French warships entered Saigon, the drops of butter flavor coffee is slowly flowing on this new land. In signing the Indo-day, adventure writer Claude Bourrin canvas tells a coffee table booked out around the Opera House. Now crowded, stuffy smell of sweet coffee throughout the region.

On the streets of this area, many coffee shops also quickly emerged as Café de la Musique, Grand Café de la Terrasse, Café des Fleurs ... to serve man expedition and natives soon absorbed the Western way of life .
The eyes of the author also subtly visible image while the husbands who gathered to chat in French cafes, then the lady you walk the chariot keng leng.
Then she turned the car more consistent to catch her husband is still second immersed with warm scented water. Claude did not forget Bourrin leisurely recounted the remarks to small, sometimes vulgar, soldier of the expedition on which the French ladies like flowers that rare childhood in Saigon ...
In the 20 years war, another angle of Saigon Vietnam, the journalist Edith Lederer (now head of AP bureaus in the United Nations), during a visit to Saigon in 2010 were in the Caravelle Hotel, and said: "Van AP's office building is located on Eden. Journalists we sat in Givral, Brodard, say enough about the world and hear the news. "
"Coffee axis" of three restaurant La Pagode, Givral, Brodard was once the press center of Saigon. There, the world's top names in journalism as Peter Arnett, Larry Burrows ... have had time to coffee, waiting and fighting with the hottest information of the Vietnam War. Also in the "coffee axis" that, "Minister Givral" Pham Xuan An was also the year Givral coffee coffee beneath the Associated Press office. He was Time magazine journalist, a best intelligence in Vietnam during the war.
Now no longer La Pagode, Givral also deactivated with Eden Court. But passing the Saigon area was still seeing bright lights and bustle Brodard coffee right fork Dong Khoi - Nguyen cards. Name Brodard still here but the "gu" coffee flavor turned to Gloria Jean's. The Vietnamese, objectivity West merged together the coffee cups. Each year, when the old people of the Vietnam War back many memories of visiting this city, Brodard - Gloria Jean's has raised the very clear in their minds. There, the crowd sat journalists, politicians travel information disturbed Saigon shake hands when the page message to the world.
Besides the cafe attached history, there are old Saigon cafe popular as the other side clear and honest people of this country. Hoang Huu Phuoc teacher training in childhood remembered holding a coffee cup to buy the parent of Indonesia. He said: "She all full tennis for the coffee powder embedded comments, racket up and down and then pour a cup of coffee. She finished serving boiling water, cover and continue to tennis. My dad addicted, addicted to my grandfather as well. "
Indonesia Nightlife day located on Nguyen Thien Arts. Both the type of coffee used tennis (also known as "coffee sock" - because female tennis socks for residues) are also rarely seen in Saigon. Later traveled all over, he still remembers the coffee Phuoc tennis day: "It's a mix of cowboys, hot water for cooking, incense smoke passionate the room ...".
Director Wall The old days he was writing science student Saigon want to remember in the old story: "The old woman selling coffee with them but always grinning. She knew every single person likes. Tennis racket out of water for coffee, he always did her constant sales conversation with customers. Nursing In popular restaurant so crowded, there was no seating. Loss aroma of coffee aroma. "
With Wall Method, coffee pavement where he had met the most important film of my life. Once, while looking out to film documentary about the hell out reformed Ba Van, he was the artist of this old reminder of the early morning cup of coffee.
Housing Bau Sen, Mr Ba Van Bau Sen got up early to market coffee and looking at people carrying cotton, fruits and vegetables, sad and happy about winning season failures. Coffee morning has helped the old man's sense of time that the blood flow to flourish in the role.
In Saigon, it was found in toad sidewalk restaurant or take that corner, the masters of literature, poets like Son Nam, Bui Christmas ... sitting next cyclo do the flood. Mr. Hoang Huu Phuoc said: "Christmas In Bui alive, the students or to us my coffee in the alley, facing the temple Nguyen Dinh Chieu Member States and met with him sitting there with your last three or four years each other. Then I saw him give cyclo car right there, sitting shoulder cosh cigarettes called coffee shops. "
Then how about the land and the South came to coffee with writer Son Nam. Life and sweat his tractor, his porters as well from his cup of coffee that goes into each particular line of work Vuong Hong Sen, in each province say the poem, the poet Bui damage to Christmas.
The decade 1960-1970 also Saigon Vietnam cafes unforgettable poor, rough carpentry, which is sometimes cruel in the "oasis" Ma Lang, District 4 of the poor, the miss fire stations, military service evasion including siblings Wanderer, sale dew ...

Deep in the alley smoking hun, hang like a dark solid cafes her Paris, her seven orphanages, age ca In meat. One can only wear large bar sat drinking coffee, lively conversation rumors, draft evasion and presentation design ready to curse everything about heaven and on earth.
Many shop owners do not know half the words sometimes, but always the book available for people who take debit debt. Coffee prices very cheap but who still can not pay the debt. Every few hours innkeeper sighed she heard his hand, her "home trade" in the neighborhood that I can not return. Debit sheet tear away because people had to have lost my unhappiness at the corner alley, head cold that fair ...

The Saigon Vietnam

Bustling streets of Saigon Vietnam and climbing every morning or the afternoon on. But to find someone familiar to the eye as it is difficult to find the golden sand. Every line of the run, but no one knows who ...
So I arrived in Saigon - the land that I will have a strong attachment to their jobs. But somehow I did not feel happy or cheerful. It seems both too strange eyes when looking at each other.
I've been here over five years, a period not short but not long enough to call the bond. But he ought to 5 years, and it was enough to me rather familiar. Yeah, the body, the emotions are not used but is much deeper. Now there's someone asking for directions or words to that question on several counties that I can only paths coronary wall as if I was here. So many people look at me not strange nor familiar. But I think the city should be so, but ask that look.
The plot has so many children of all parts of the country to country to live and be in business. Among them, there are many people who have officially entered the household, married and lived with it over a dozen years. And they also unwittingly become a city when someone mentioned. Is this an attempt that tomorrow I would like them to or remain in the household take their small country in Ben Tre.
Each time picking hand from pounding like a peaceful place that I love so farewell. Feelings mix sadness, memory, often a love of the land, the land has gentle nursery hearts emission of the Southern people. But only when away from the new things that appear in our hearts deeply.
Bustling streets of Saigon Vietnam and climbing every morning or the afternoon on. But to find someone familiar to the eye as it is difficult to find the golden sand. Every line of the run, but no one knows who. It is said that two meals heard him laugh just said: "I see too crowded city car, which looks strange or look back through. Living opens you so sad, such as his own."
Yeah, of course, the city knew how people live, the years together but never knew each other let alone ... neighbors on home furnishings lost in a hundredfold. At home, the party has hit all the girls, running through the auxiliary device that awful happy, so also each have a basket of vegetables, a bowl of soup or simply ask a normal word.
Happiness is so, is so warm and although the home country or the city, it still has a nature or its own. Song, to feel valued and fully understand what they want to talk, not everyone knows. Some people are too relaxed good list, just about anything to get what she needs. Not know whether it is right or wrong. Some people are too weak, and doomed to the fate of all life is only darkness forever. But there are a lot of optimistic people, love life, living out of faith, for passion, for his real career. And it all seems familiar, flavors tasted enough of this land to bring Saigon.
Particularly, I was no exception but I never thought I would be the city, although I very modern, very stylish and always know the change with time. And maybe I'll forever etched in my heart the word "homeland" and is always proud of Ben Tre children, children of the same piece of land to start resilience. And I will sing songs forever "Hometown each one, as only a mother only. If anyone does not remember the homeland, will not float into the large."
