Man, don't go to Hanoi, you're gonna go nuts. That one guy selling banh bao is nothing compared to the noise hell in Hanoi. I just came back from a 4-month trip to Vietnam and I thought I would end up going deaf. The noise now is nothing like it was when I visited for the first time 15 years ago. I was actually born there but I'm a Canadian citizen. I don't know how they can tolerate all those decibels from morning til late at night, it drove me mad. I'm not even gonna go into the constant construction noises. People would play their stereo systems at maximum volume with their doors open so the whole street would be subjected to it. I was renting this apartment in the old quarter and a neighbour played his music so loud, the whole place was shaking as bad as if there was an earthquake. Shops do it, restaurants do it, the noise comes from everywhere. It could be as loud as a concert, the police doesn't care. Nobody complains cause everybody does it. It's like they're immune to it or something but I don't have that gene.

I know Hanoi is quite loud sometimes too. Maybe it depends on where you're living in the city. Doing vlogs walking around the West Lake area wasn't too deafening, but it was sometimes a challenge to record audio when talking since I had to pause whenever a motorbike revved by lol. Love it or hate it, Vietnam is a symphony of sounds for sure. What was your favorite place to see in the country?

@@PepeLePauly We went to Ha Giang, the northern limit of the country where you can see China on the other side of the mountains. It was a super long car drive going through those majestic mountains in the clouds and the ethnic tribes villages. That was nice. Since my dad is in his 80's, we didn't tour as much as I would've wished though.

Earplugs should be a necessity for people who are around the banh bao motorbike route! Hopefully you escaped it for now. Also, did you hear that repetitive jingle tune from that store lit up in lights with the bright yellow sign on a street corner? I think it sells Vietnamese snacks and durian cakes. That one drove me nuts too lol 🤯

It’s funny because I have recently watched a video of a k-pop group who visited a little Korean theme park called Lotte World I think and I’m guessing that they rent it out for a bit because they and the employees were the only ones who were there at this indoor attraction. I think it was to make filming easier and to avoid being mobbed by fans.
@PepeLePauly
@PepeLePauly 4 күн бұрын
Yes, Lotte World in Seoul is crazy busy! They likely would have been mobbed by all the students and fans. I visited there before and had to wait in line for over an hour for most rides. The staff at one of them said it was nearly a 3-hour wait, so I skipped it and just kept wandering around through the crowds lol 😂

Great video! You have mentioned multiple things and places that I haven’t seen mentioned in other related travel videos. I was waiting for you to mention the three most overrated places towards the end of the video but then that didn’t end up being in the video? I’m guessing that the Dragon Bridge is one of those because other videos are always saying it’s very crowded.

Yes, the Dragon Bridge is a bit overrated in my opinion but at least it's free to see. Also, I'm making a video about Ba Na Hills and talk about why I didn't go. The video about the other overrated places are coming up too!

Đã Nang is the first port entrance of American soldiers arriving in Vietnam 🇻🇳. It’ used to have a huge American military base there. American soldiers used to go to My Khe beach to play volleyball, swimming, sunbathing, surfing, etc... If you ask any American soldiers who had been in VN where they did enter the country.
