North Vietnam Double Dragon Bay, Sapa, Hanoi Free Travel

DAY 9: The Temple of Literature was built in 1070 AD by Emperor Ly Thanh Tong of the Ly Dynasty of Vietnam in Thang Long, now Hanoi. In 1076, Emperor Li Renzong built the Imperial Academy behind the Confucian Temple. Initially, it was only for the children of the emperor's relatives to study. In 1223, the emperor of the Chen Dynasty changed the name of the Imperial Academy to the National Academy, and gradually expanded the enrollment scope so that children of common people could also study there. The Tong Xuan Market is a large-scale local wholesale market. The first floor is mainly for daily necessities and branded shoes and bags; the second floor is mainly for traditional Vietnamese clothing and fabrics; the third floor is mainly for infant clothing. We visited several stores and asked about the prices, and the prices offered were all on the high side. After leaving the market, we experienced the local tricycles. Because the guests sit in the front and the driver rides in the back, it is also called "the guests die first", which is quite appropriate. The traffic in the city is really very chaotic from morning to night. The traffic lights are completely decorative. Pedestrians who want to cross the road have to rely on their own abilities. Once they make up their minds, they will keep going at a constant speed. Cars and motorcycles will calculate the distance and pass in front of or behind you. Don't stop suddenly or speed up to jog, otherwise it will cause trouble to the locals. When you come here, you must follow the local customs and forget the pedestrian emperor clause in Taiwan.

Based on an objective analysis, the overall consumer price in Sapa is relatively low compared to the three cities. The stores offer reasonable prices, and if you buy a lot, you can ask the store owner for a discount. Taking the real-time exchange rate of EX APP as 1:784, the best exchange rate is 1:755 among local travel agencies in Hanoi city, and the worst is 1:690 at the airport. Massage shops and souvenir shops in various cities also provide exchange, but the exchange rate is about 1:700-720. It is simply for convenience. You can exchange as much as you need, because it is difficult to exchange any unused money back into Taiwan dollars. This is our ninth day in North Vietnam. Please follow our steps and come and see this beautiful world together!
