Holiday is at hand! You definitely want it, right? It
is the best time to tune out your weariness after a hard, busy time in your
school, college, or work. In holiday, you can have a great moment in your life,
with your family or your lover. Maybe you want to try something new for your
holiday like visit other countries or you have a dream to have a holiday
outside your country. If so, one country you may add to your list is Vietnam.
Vietnam is a Southeast Asian country on the South
China Sea known for its beaches, rivers, Buddhist pagodas and bustling cities. In
this country, people know Hồ Chí Minh is the famous city and most visited by
tourist. Besides this city, there is a recommended famous city in Vietnam that
you can visit, Vũng Tàu City. I have a Vietnamese
Facebook friend, Thuan Than, who shared her short weekend holiday experience in
this city via Messenger. She went to the city with her boyfriend by motorcycle.
Actually, I don't really know much about Vietnam. After she sent me the photos
about her holiday in this city, I said Masha Allah, it's beautiful.

According to her, Vũng Tàu is a lovely and
interesting city. There are many beautiful beaches like Bãi Sau (Back
Beach) and Bãi Trước (Front Beach) and
mountains like Small Mountain and Big Mountain. She like the culinary varieties
in this city. The famous food in this city is seafood. Indeed, there are many
seafood because it’s close to the sea. She tasted many food such this picture below. Look so yummy, isn't?

The
living cost in this city is so affordable. She said the accommodation is very exhaustive
from cheap to luxurious motel, hotel, villa and apartment. She booked a three starts
hotel for two nights with affordable cost which is just ₫500.000 (Đồng Vietnam)
or Rp. 310.000. Furthermore, the transportation cost is cheap enough. With the
motorcycle, it took about Rp. 94.000 for the fuel for two days of their
traveling. The food price is also worth it. Each seafood is just about Rp.
25.000 and the Banh Khot is Rp. 15.000. I think it's not really different with in Indonesia.
The reasons that drive her to
choose this city is because it is not too far which just about 2 hours from her town and not really crowded, very peaceful
and beautiful, and also the cheapness of the cost.
