Anna and Bin are touring Ho Chi Minh City. They decide to visit Ben Thanh Market to buy some gifts after their city tour.
Anna
Hey Bin, we’ve had such a great time touring the city today! The Notre-Dame Cathedral and Reunification Palace were so glamorous.
I agree, Anna. But I’m feeling a bit exhausted now. Let’s take a break and buy some souvenirs at Ben Thanh Market.
Bin
Anna
Good idea! I need to buy some gifts for my friends in Singapore. What do you think I should get?
How about some traditional Vietnamese “Nón Lá”? They are quite durable and will definitely look good on display in your friends’ homes. Your friend can use it to decor the home.
Bin

That sounds perfect! I’ll make sure to stick to my budget too. By the way, how’s the weather looking for the rest of the day?

Alright, let’s make the most of the good weather then. We can browse the market and get those gifts.
Sounds good. I’ll also look for some souvenirs to take back home. Maybe some traditional crafts or local snacks

Great idea! I heard they have some beautiful handmade items that are perfect for gifts.

Hi, I'm Alex. I recently planned a trip to Hội An and Đà Nẵng, and I'm really excited about it. First, I checked the weather forecast to make sure it would be suitable for my activities. Luckily, it's going to be sunny and warm with a bit of humidity, perfect for exploring.
I booked my flight tickets in advance to get a good deal. When I arrive in Đà Nẵng, my first activity will be snorkeling at the beautiful beaches. I've heard the marine life there is incredible, and I can't wait to see it firsthand.
After enjoying the beaches of Đà Nẵng, I'll head to Hội An. I'm planning to take a city tour to admire the ancient town's architecture and vibrant night markets. The glamorous lantern-lit streets of Hội An at night are something I've always wanted to see.
Of course, I plan to buy some souvenirs. Hội An is famous for its handcrafted lanterns, so I'll definitely pick up a few to bring back as gifts for my friends.
Overall, I'm looking forward to an amazing trip filled with adventure and cultural experiences.
