Hung describes Vietnamese culture


Vietnamese culture is very interesting and fascinating. VietNam and China have some of the same customs. Example: Tet holiday, New Year occasion, Trung Thu event and more … But some special customs are just be in VietNam.

Vietnamese people are very friendly and enthusiastic. When you meet a Vietnamese, you just say “Hello” and maybe shake their hand. Vietnamese will be happy if you can say “ Xin Chao” (it means Hello).

Vietnamese culture is effected by East Asia. Relationship between men and women is to be taken notice of. Couples shouldn’t kiss or do any familiar acts in public. You should respect with old people and teachers.

Vietnamese‘s main religon is Buddhism so you have to wear elegant clothes and take off your shoes when you go to a pagoda.

You shouldn’t use your hand to point at some people. It’s so impolite.

Maybe having some different culture that you should know but I don’t remember it all :D

Welcome to VietNam. Have a good journey!
