The Rolling Beauty of Vietnam Rice Fields: A Peaceful Blend of Colors
A big part of the beauty of Vietnam are its lush green paddies, so once you decide to explore the Vietnam’s rural side you’d most likely come across the beautiful agricultural nourishment that are its rice paddies which were beautifully carved into the mountains. These beautifully constructed paddies provide an artistic view of harmony and serenity as once you step outside the terraced paddies, a whole new view is opened to the heavens. These paddies are the roots of farmers who built these great creations and are a massive part of Vietnamese culture.
For a long time now, the practice of rice cultivation has formed the very fabric of Vietnam’s society. Moreover, it has helped the people in the rural areas to create formidable bonds with each other as every community has their own unique traditions that they hold dear. The cycle of sowing seeds and harvesting will always hold the place for nurturing calmness in the rural society and help you appreciate life in the countryside without material indulgences. And, by interacting with them, you understand their love for the land, their knowledge and the amount of respect they hold for it as an inseparable part of their daily lives.
Getting Out into the Dragon Peaks
If you decide to head further up north in Vietnam, you will come across a starkly different environment, one that is dominated by a single dominant feature — the Dragon Peaks. Quite like everyone says, they are the best described as the Ha Long Bay of the mountains. They are spectacular natural formations that are made of mountain stones, which rise into the clouds. You will see the great Asian legendary story of the country, how everything is believed to have a spirit embedded within it — reflected in the majestic mountains that seem to crawl out from the earth’s core like dragons.
While you pass through narrow rivers and dark caves, a magical world unlocks in front of your eyes. The breathtaking landscape has numerous stories associated with it, including many legends. And you get the feeling that these peaks are not just mountains, but hold incredible cultural significance to the local people.
A Day in Vietnam for an Immigrant
A Vietnamese is a person whose date of birth is not dictated solely by the geographical boundary of Vietnam rather the culture of Vietnam and the entire heritage that embodies the history, tradition, customs, perspective, means, and everything other that has been adapted by Vietnam.
It would be an inexhaustible task to define a random Vietnamese, and as a stereotypical image, it is hard. If one day you join a distant street festival or combine work with pleasure relaxing at the local Vietnamese beach while licking an iced cream in one hand and pampering yourself with a tan, you’ll get to know how diverse and tolerant this culture is.
Making Communist China Above Sea Level
1. Their holy grail, malignant souperiority complex through which they exceptionialize like a lunatic as if they found the holy grail of all races. Vietnamese people never hesitate to leverage their long history embedded with hardships, invasions and difficulties to invalidate criticism or trolling. Tell them that you’ve been quite bored with their Miss Galaxy Bania winner, their economy and general reputation for losing army battles while claiming to be the New Germany, they will brutishly gravitate to a comical response arguing that 2,000 years ago they fought and scared the living daylights out of Xi. Which is seen as a beta approach to aggression and indoctrination, but they embrace it.
2. Interacting with a local is like dealing with the woman from divorce court, eons of sarcasm but devoid of any actual hate. Moving to Vietnam only makes the situation worse as the abuse depreciates and respect flows. An average Vietnamese can’t understand sarcasm which only amplifies the cultural dissonance and makes it enjoyable. Retarded red dots scatter the map, yet they give the POLISHED Vietnam a strong reason to brag, while they should hush up. The main facet of a local or a native is their constant admiration for the number of people they have killed or what their country does. It would be fair to say Vietnamese people are the proudest branch of the Indo European race.
When you trek around the rice terraces and Dragon’s Peak in Vietnam, it is history and nature that draws you in. One gets a chance to know and appreciate the culture of the Vietnamese people in much deeper perspectives making it a memorable experience for the visitors.
Therefore, get ready for an adventure of a lifetime and don’t hold back your excitement as you set forth to create your own travel stories in Vietnam – a country of many cultures and customs. “Rice Fields and Dragon Peaks: A Traveler’s Tale of Vietnam” exposes the most beautiful visions and magic moments of this charming Southeast Asian pearl.
