Vietnam is one of the countries that I want to visit someday. The reason I started to be interested in Vietnam why I had made Vietnamese friend at KIFL. She is very kind and hardworking. Originally, I was interested in world culture from a young age, so I often hear Vietnam’s lifestyle, food, language and so on from her. For this reason, I started to search and make a plan about travel to Vietnam.
According to travel site of Japan, Vietnam is becoming popular as one of the travel destination of Japanese in recent years. Especially, popular among young people like a student and women. In fact, Vietnam has recorded 92,000 Japanese emigrants by country and region updated in November 2019. This number is large amount next to Thailand in the Southeast Asian market. As a reason for this popularity, there are four main reasons.
First reason is the proximity of Japan. Flight time from Japan to Vietnam is approximately 5~6 hours by direct flight and equation time of Japan is only -2 hours. I think that easy to go distance is attractive for Japanese who difficult to take long holidays. Second reason is the cheap price. Prices of Vietnam are about one third of Japan. For example, the price of a cup of coffee of Vietnam is about in Japanese yen approximately 70 yen, while that of Japan is no matter how cheap, it costs about 250~300 yen. Tourist can be retained cheap travel costs, and stay at 5-star rank hotel that It’s hard to stay in other countries like a Europe. Third, relatively good security. Usually, possessing guns of general publics are prohibited in Vietnam alike Japan, so there are almost no terrorism or firing incidents. But pickpocket and snatchers occur more frequently than in Japan. Four reason, Vietnam’s moving experience is very cheap. For example, taxi first ride price of Vietnam is about 60 yen, but Japan is about 400 yen, so traveler is easy to move multiple cities by low costs.
Through the research, I think that Vietnam’s culture is attracting Japanese. The first attraction is historical colonial architecture. There are many French colonial buildings in Vietnam. This reason is that Vietnam was dominated by France. In 1858, France started attack and occupied Vietnam together with Spain on the pretense of Catholic missionary protection. And in 1859, France also had power over South Vietnam and based in Saigon (now: Ho Chi Minh). In 1882, France dominated Hanoi and the Nguyen dynasty was approved protection treaty by France. From this year France started colonial rule of Vietnam in real earnest. So, these two cities, Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh, have a lot of colonial architectures. Particularly, Ho Chi Minh, this city is my friend’s hometown, which is said to be ‘Paris of the Orient’, and many European-style buildings built in 19th century to 20th century are kept remain. I think the cityscape with a fusion of Asian style and Western style architecture that you can’t see in Japan is very interesting for Japanese.
Second, I introduce Vietnam’s food stall culture. Food stall is one of the Vietnam’s cultures. Most Vietnamese eat breakfast at food stall. This factor is many Vietnamese families work together and should get up early, so not cook much at home in the morning specially. Also, there is a food stall everywhere because it’s root as culture. So, eating at food stall is more familiar than buying at convenience store for Vietnamese.
Thirdly, it is a unique culture characteristic of a particular country. It is midday nap. Generally, there is a nap habit in Vietnam. Usually, in Japan, a nap time is given only to kindergarten children. On the other hand, school and office also have a nap time, just like kindergarten, in Vietnam. This reason is that Vietnam’s morning is very early. In Japan, most store’s open time is 9:00~10:00 at the earliest, but in Vietnam, food stall opens 6:00 in morning, and office hour starts from 8:00 a.m. You can see many people who sleep on a hammock if you go out town at around noon. The scene will very unfamiliar for Japanese, but I think this culture is so efficient and should be adopted at Japanese company or school.
The last is Vietnam’s food. Vietnam is famous for coffee, and known for the world’s second largest coffee exporter next to Brazil. Actually, Vietnam accounts for about 20% of global coffee production. All most of Vietnamese are drinking coffee once a day. This coffee culture is rooted from influence of French governance, so there are lots of coffee shop from local cafes to modern and stylish cafes. You have many choices. What’s more, Vietnam’s style coffee is different from Japanese style. Vietnam style coffee added condensed milk instead of usual milk, so sweeter than Japanese coffee.
In conclusion, everyone may discover new findings and can expand their knowledge through a travel and interact with local people.
