Get your passport ready before you leave:
Adults and children need to apply in advance, and Tianjin can get it in a week or so.
Visa processing:
Prepare 4x6 three bareheaded photos with white background in advance, and give them to the travel agency together with the passport, so that you can get the visa in advance and save the waiting time for the visa on arrival.
Personal belongings preparation:
It was already very hot at the end of April when we went. The tour guide told us that the temperature was 15-28℃, but in fact, we were above 30℃ in those days, and the ultraviolet rays were relatively strong, so sun protection, sun protection clothes,
Sunglasses, sun hats, flip-flops, shorts, swimsuits and other necessary beach equipment are all prepared in advance.
It is best to buy a flow card and a phone card online in advance to use in Vietnam, so as to facilitate contact in the past. We bought two flow cards for 20 yuan, and it was very useful to contact them completely by WeChat in those days. Of course, you can also buy it locally. These things are not expensive. There is no need to prepare a conversion plug. We bought two useless ones.
Currency:
The currency used in Vietnam is Vietnamese dong, with a maximum denomination of 50W, which is basically converted into 1: 3300- 1: 3500 with RMB. Many places in Nha Trang can use RMB, but most of them don't accept RMB, and they don't use WeChat or Alipay.
Therefore, it is necessary to change the Vietnamese dong in advance. Because I didn't know to change it in advance, I finally got off the plane and changed it to 1:3200 at the airport. Many places are 1: 3 100, 1: 3300.
I finally met the tour guide and realized that he could change it for us, up to 1: 3500. So let's ask in advance which place has the highest cost performance. Also, before we go, change the change of 1000 yuan into 10 yuan, which is convenient for tipping.
Vietnamese Dong（VND）
Customs clearance experience:
I don't know who gave me this habit. When I went through the customs, everyone put a tip of 10 yuan in their passports and visas. It seems that if you don't give it, the customs will make things difficult for you and will not pass the customs smoothly. Then you can see that everyone is putting money into their passports, and the customs will take out the money first when they open it. It's so natural and smooth.
Day 1 set out today and finally started this trip to Nha Trang.
This trip is a welfare given to employees by Judas company, so 22 of us are colleagues and their families in Judas. Everyone is familiar with it and communication is smooth. There are three children in the same company, and the age difference is not big. Youyou can find a small partner to play with, which saves a lot of effort.
Because there is no direct flight to Nha Trang, the travel agency has assembled several groups. Chartered flight departs from Tianjin to Nha Trang directly, meets at Tianjin Airport at 6 pm on April 26th, and takes off from Tianjin at 2 1:20.
02:00+ 1 Arrive in Nha Trang.
There is an hour time difference between China and Viet Nam, or Nha Trang is one hour later than Beijing time! For example, it's 8 am Beijing time and 7 am Nha Trang time! )
After arriving at the airport, there was an episode. The tour guide told everyone that you can't take meat, eggs and milk through customs. Originally, we brought a lot of pure milk and beef jerky, and we planned to eat them in Vietnam. None of the other snacks could get on the plane. As a result, our family drank milk, ate beef jerky and ate bread in the airport lobby.
Is it a bit like Rainbow Bao Qiang in People on the Road? Arriving at Nha Trang Airport, there was a luxury bus and a beautiful tour guide, Xiaomei, who stayed at the beautiful DuyenHaResort Jin Lan in Nha Trang that night.
CamRanhNhaTrang), the hotel has free wifi, a waiter to help with the luggage, and a direct tip by the way. Fortunately, we are ready.
Mobile phone time is automatically converted to Vietnam time.
Day2 city tour+mud bath In the morning, the hotel has a buffet breakfast, which is mainly Vietnamese food and western food, so you can eat well.
The most popular Vietnamese rice noodles
Cathedral+champagne+drip coffee
After breakfast, meet in the lobby 10, take a bus to the city, and go to Nha Trang Cathedral first. The whole church is carved out of stone, so it is also called stone cathedral!
Because it was too hot and Yo-Yo slept again, we stood at the door and took a group photo, even if we visited.
Next, we will go to Bonaga Castle in Champa Pagoda, where Bonaga, the goddess of heaven in Champa mythology, is enshrined. Champa is an ancient country, located in south-central Vietnam today. Its Sanskrit name is Champa Buluo, which means to occupy the city.
There are many small shops outside Champotta, and the small commodities they sell are not very expensive. The boss can speak Chinese and will bargain with us.
This time, the tour guide is China. We call him Hongdao, a native of Guangxi, with pigtails, chubby face and slow speech.
His assistant Xiaomei is a beautiful young Vietnamese girl who speaks Chinese very well.
Vietnam has four thin houses, thin people, thin cars and thin countries. The urban area of Nha Trang looks rather chaotic, all of them are privately built multi-storey buildings, but the houses are very tall and thin, most of them have only one facade, which is particularly deep and there are many high-rise buildings. This is called a thin house. Anyone who has several facades must be a local tyrant; There are so many motorcycles on the road that you can't see many cars. Drivers are all local tyrants. This is called a thin car. Vietnamese eat very lightly and in small quantities. It is estimated that people here can eat one meal a day, so everyone is slim and healthy. This is called thinness. Finally, the country lost weight. Look at this map, image?
A motorcycle (wallet) robber
Because Vietnam is close to Laos and Myanmar, many unemployed people there have not found jobs in Vietnam and can only make a living by robbery and theft. Riding a high-powered motorcycle and wearing a tight suit, he escaped after being robbed. If you call the police, the police in Vietnam are very slow and make you doubt your life.
Tip first when you come. You don't have to get your bag back. This is called "Noichi". So don't count on the police, be careful when crossing the road and try to walk inside. We sat on the bus and looked out. There are motorcycles and electric cars all over the street, and everyone is dressed up. If they were robbed, they wouldn't see their faces at all.
The tour guide said that he had seen an aunt being robbed of a bag, and the aunt was holding the bag. Yeyi took out his knife and cut off the arm with the bag directly! The picture is too bloody. Let's make up for it ourselves.
Especially at night, we are afraid to go out, and there is an inexplicable fear when we look at motorcycles.
Cross the road with your life.
There are few traffic lights on the street, and the traffic is endless. It seems that all people don't need to obey the traffic rules. If you have to wait for the bus to stop and let you cross, you may not be able to cross the road all day. We all followed Xiaomei through the traffic and raised our palms to signal that we were going to cross the road.
Although their driving skills are really good, they are good at braking, but we China people are used to parking at red lights, and crossing the road here is really scary, risking our lives to cross the road. This sentence is true!
Drip coffee
The most authentic way to taste a cup of Vietnamese coffee with sea breeze-drip coffee, put coffee powder into a metal filter (Cantonese drip pot, common name "drip gold"), pour boiling water, let the coffee drip into the cup for about 65,438+00 minutes, then add sugar or condensed milk and ice cubes according to everyone's taste, and mix well before drinking. My parents and I seldom drink coffee, but we all drink it.
mud bath
Resort natural mineral slurry bath
Mud is the best quarry in Vietnam. It is mainly composed of silicon dioxide and some trace elements needed by human body. Rich in minerals, it is beneficial to human health, helps sleep and eliminates fatigue.
There are five or six people in a pool. After soaking in fine mud, I really feel that my skin is slippery and looks very white. It's amazing. Unfortunately, I can't take pictures after soaking. That's a real pity. After washing the mud bath, you can go to hot springs, health springs and swimming pools. The environment is also very good.
For dinner, go to the special restaurant to enjoy the seafood hotpot with river view in Amman. The sea water in Nha Trang is clear in most cases, mainly rich in seafood. The seafood here is fresh and delicious, and the dining environment is good. Hot pot is a rice cooker. After the water boils, pour in all kinds of seafood, cover it and cook slowly. If you want to eat it at once, you really can't worry, because Vietnamese are slow to do anything. This is what the tour guide said. The taste is typical of Vietnam, and seafood lovers will definitely like it. It's a pity that five people in my family don't like it. What a pity.
On the third day, after gathering in Pearl Island, we went to the pier and stayed at Pearl Island Hotel with the help of the tour guide. Pearl Hotel is located in Nha Trang Bay, the famous central coast at the southern tip of Vietnam. Facing the sea, backed by mountains, with beautiful scenery, it is the largest sea paradise in Vietnam. The hotel is equipped with beautifully designed rooms, as well as beauty and fitness services, Vietnamese spa and other leisure activities. Diversified restaurants can meet different dietary needs from Vietnamese local flavor to Asian and European cuisine. Pearl Island Amusement Park, also known as Nha Trang Disney, covers an area of more than 30,000 square meters and is a well-known entertainment place in Vietnam integrating life, catering and large-scale amusement facilities. This is the largest swimming pool in Southeast Asia. It has
700-meter-long private beach, the longest cable car across the sea in the world, large amusement parks including roller coasters, carousels and indoor video game cities, as well as 4D cinemas and large aquariums.
Map of Pearl Island
Look at the guide map and you will know that Pearl Island is really interesting. Everyone says you can't finish playing in one day. There are zoos, botanical gardens, water parks and so on, all of which are children's favorites. It's very hot today, but unfortunately I'm wearing a long airtight dress. This is a mistake.
I got off the cable car and went straight to the playground. I watched all kinds of exciting sightseeing projects. Holding the child and the old man, I had to give up. Finally found a relatively mild project (as shown below). My parents and I went first, but it was fine at first. As a result, on the second lap, I felt sick, afraid to open my eyes and dizzy. I want to go down at once. This is really a dead play.
Forget about other projects. I walked around the playground and went directly to Youyou's favorite zoo and botanical garden. Because it was too hot, we had a cursory tour and then took the Ferris wheel.
Today's Chinese food and dinner are self-care. There are several restaurants in the scenic spot, but they are all overcrowded. My parents don't like fried chicken hamburgers, so we found a restaurant where we can eat rice and noodles. Open-air restaurants are all from China, and there are long queues.
The biggest failure was that Judas waited in line for a long time, but people didn't accept RMB, WeChat or Alipay. We didn't have enough VND to pay UnionPay cards, but we could only pay 200 yuan at a time (I didn't know whether it was a limit at that time), which was not enough. Only 200 yuan RMB can be paid in the last half day, and the rest will be in Vietnamese dong.
I finally got it, but it didn't taste very good. Rice is similar to Korean bibimbap, and noodles are just cooked instant noodles, but the price is not cheap.
While waiting for the meal, yo-yo began to cry. It's hard to coax her. It's time for her to go to bed, but she is too tired and hot to sleep. Finally, she had to help me pack and take it back to the villa. Tonight we will stay in a villa with a sea view.
Waiting for sightseeing bus at Gate 63, the scenery is beautiful all the way. Yo-yo got on the bus and fell asleep.
Our two families live in a villa and we live on the first floor. As a result, when I got to bed and saw the small swimming pool brought by the villa, Yo-Yo woke up and didn't sleep. The family gave up going to the scenic spot, so everyone changed their swimsuits and jumped into the pool.
This villa has its own swimming pool, and it is very comfortable to live in. It is a pleasant life to drink dripping coffee and enjoy the beautiful sea view in your spare time, but it's a pity that you can only stay for one night.
It's time for dinner. Dad found a menu to order and finally found something to eat. As a result, after the waiter delivered it, the problem of insufficient Vietnamese dong appeared again. He can only use 200 yuan at a time, and he doesn't accept cash. No one else came back, and he couldn't borrow Vietnamese dong. The waiter didn't understand Chinese, so he explained it in English for a long time and asked him to take his father to find a place where he could exchange money. Finally, he asked his colleagues to exchange money for dinner, and the lowest exchange rate was 1:3000.
This is a lesson. It's more convenient for everyone to change Vietnamese dong. If you can't finish eating, you can change it back later.
On the fourth day, after breakfast in Pearl Island, lover island took a boat to lover island, a pure land in Nha Trang waters.
Free on the island: single rowing boat, towel, shower and seafood barbecue buffet. Diving requires an extra charge.
Beautiful lover island, romantic lover island!
Ma he ni ni
Just like you have been in the traffic of the city for a long time and listened to the noise for a long time, you want to find a quiet place, not far from the city, close to nature and build your own castle and villa. That's how lover island makes you feel, above the Pacific Ocean, deep in Nha Trang Bay, with exclusive ownership.
In lover island, there are fairyland-like beauty, whispering waves, crisp mountain sounds and no urban atmosphere!
Lying on the beach chair leisurely, enjoying the slow time brought by the sea breeze!
Take the children, dig sand and build castles. I hope this time will be slower.
Have a seafood barbecue buffet at noon, and you can also eat grilled crocodiles and pythons! It's a pity that our family doesn't eat seafood again!
In the afternoon, I went back to the city for dinner and enjoyed a private kitchen. Vietnamese cuisine is characterized by freshness, naturalness and proper color. It uses a lot of herbs and tropical fruits and vegetables, and takes the principle of preserving the original flavor of food. Sweet, sour and spicy, appetizing, in line with the requirements of modern people for a healthy diet. The food is very rich, but it's a pity that I didn't take pictures.
Visit GalinaShow after dinner.
Nha Trang Dream is a large-scale performance show, which reproduces the splendid Champo culture in the past with gorgeous performances. The mellow and soft lotus flowers in Vietnam reproduce the era of Wang Xiong, where there is spirit and strength, and are respected as ancestors by the Vietnamese people. Buddhist culture is displayed through Guanyin with thousands of Vietnamese supermodels and unique Jing costumes, giving the audience an audio-visual feast of Vietnamese culture and feeling the charm of art.
Day5 spent a whole day shopping and went to ASEAN Bao, [Ocean Bao] and Vietnam Latex Products Experience Center to buy goods according to personal requirements. The price is not cheap, the sales volume is also very strong, and there is no mandatory purchase requirement.
After shopping, I went to Wuzhiyan Scenic Resort Scenic Area.
Wuzhiyan Scenic Resort Scenic Park is famous for its performances by Vietnamese artists. They perform music in various forms, such as clapping, hammering and beating with sticks. , has a certain ornamental value!
It is said that the scenic spots in Wuzhiyan Scenic Resort are very effective, and all wishes can be realized just by touching them.
Day6 Visit Nha Trang Silk+Send the plane in the morning and continue to visit Nha Trang Silk Store and VN Company's merchandise store. Bought a lot of Vietnamese specialties.
A few days' trip will soon be over. The tour guide took us to the airport, and Xiaomei helped with the registration. There were a lot of people, mostly from China, and there was a long queue. During the security check here, we have to take off our shoes and belts. Even better, the staff let us go in first when they saw the baby, otherwise it would be uncomfortable to hold the baby for an hour.
Finally, I boarded the plane home and ate what I thought was the best plane meal: roast beef and rice.
We arrive at Tianjin airport at about 20: 20. The moment we set foot on the land, we all said: When we set foot on the land of China, we felt so at ease and safe for a moment.
Although the first drip driver who made an appointment lied that there were many people below us and there was a police inspection, I think the price increase of 100 yuan doesn't matter for the time being. This is our territory. Let him go.
Travel is a kind of practice. We walk from where we are tired to where others are tired. Sunshine, beach, waves, leisurely time left beautiful memories and unforgettable experiences, and then we returned to the starting point.
