TRAVELLIVE 01-2016

Dear Travllive’s readers, On these first days of New Year 2016, cheerful melodies of Tet have been played everywhere, marking the arrival of Lunar New Year. Lyrics of old traditional songs have their own power to call back my memories as if I was just a child happily singing the songs with my friends day by day when Tet was coming to town. When I was studying at university, I had two Tet each year, one for patients and the old in social protection centers and one for my family.

When I was studying at university, I had<br />

two Tet each year, one for patients and the<br />

old in social protection centers and one for<br />

my family. 15 years ago, my friends and I<br />

celebrated Lunar New Year with the old in<br />

a nursing home. On receiving our<br />

banh chung, an old woman hold<br />

my hands tightly, crying and<br />

telling me about her family,<br />

the time she was far away<br />

from home and uncompleted<br />

Tet seasons she had. That was<br />

the first time after years she had a<br />

Tet which was as warm as she wished with<br />

the happiness of being remembered as she<br />

considered us her grandchildren.<br />

15 years later, my life has changed a lot<br />

with work, long business trips and holidays.<br />

However, Tet is always the time I want<br />

to slow down. It’s the time for family’s<br />

happiness and for great memories. Going<br />

shopping at Tet markets, making banh<br />

chung, cooking delicious dishes,<br />

and decorating the peach<br />

tree all together help me<br />

enjoy Tet. The meanings<br />

of Tet never change, yet<br />

with more days off, I and<br />

my husband will bring our<br />

children to somewhere new,<br />

then name that new place the<br />

first joy of the year.<br />

On this occasion, Travellive Magazine<br />

would like to express our gratitude to<br />

our readers for supporting us through the<br />

years.<br />

Wish you and your family a happy and<br />

lucky year!<br />

HCMC If I have only 24 hours to explore Saigon, I will definitely choose a traditional<br />

Vietnamese breakfast, sip a cup of iced coffee with milk, ride an old motorbike around the<br />

city, visit the Museum of Art, enjoy an µ Ë show at the City Theater and, after all,<br />

complete my day by taking in the beauty of Saigon by night at Liquid Sky Bar. Situated<br />

on the 21 st floor of Renaissance Riverside Hotel Saigon, the bar is an ideal place<br />

offering me great panoramic views of a strange Saigon from the sunset on.<br />

A windy evening is the time to savor a glass of cocktail poolside while contemplating<br />

the night sky. Fans of Prosecco will surely get excited with Italian sparkling wine<br />

from Liquid Gold while Vodka lovers will be mesmerized by an array of cocktails with different<br />

signature flavors. Delightful drinks and vibrant music by famous DJs all together make Liquid<br />

Sky Bar an impressive space for night parties.<br />

Liquid Sky Bar is creatively designed with different spaces: the mezzanine level is the place<br />

where you can get away from the bustling Saigon while desks along the swimming pool are for<br />

chilling out with friends. Overlooking the east bank of Saigon River, Liquid Sky Bar brings you<br />

an interesting journey of music and the art of bartending, inspiring your new itineraries.<br />

ANGKOR GOLF<br />

RESORT<br />

When visiting Siem Reap (Cambodia), the<br />

combination of a golf tour and visiting Angkor<br />

heritage is one of the most interesting<br />

experiences. Located right at the heart of the city, Angkor<br />

Golf Resort is a convenient place for you to travel. The<br />

18-hole golf course, Angkor Golf Resort is designed by<br />

the legendary designer Nick Faldo and covers an area of<br />

7209 yards. In addition to a 300-yard driving range, there<br />

is a putting and chipping area for golfers of all levels. This is<br />

actually a perfect place for golfers before getting ready to<br />

achieve 72 par.<br />

LEGEND HILL GOLF RESORT OPENS THEIR DRIVING RANGE<br />

Legend Hill Golf Resort has officially opened their driving range with world-class amenities and standards, allowing golfers<br />

of all levels to practice and experience the same situations that they must face with on the real golf course. Golfers have a<br />

chance to hit from different lines at different angles at different greens over bunkers and practice with golf sticks in a private<br />

area. An undulated green and green side bunker has been designed next to the hitting area to practice all those difficult putts,<br />

chips and bunker shots that you face on the golf course.<br />

SWING AT 1,200M HIGH<br />

With fresh air and an array of leisure activities, The Dalat At 1200 is a great getaway to enjoy the spring's atmosphere.<br />

As its name reflects, the 18-hole golf course of The Dalat At 1200 is located at a height of 1,200m above the sea level and<br />

surrounded by a natural valley, Da Ron. The golf course challenges all golfers with bent grass and uneven terrain, requiring<br />

them to have perfect skills and extremely accurate hits. Other highlighted utilities of the project include a horse-riding center,<br />

an adventurous sport club, a golf academy, a tennis academy, cycling roads, a water sport club in the lake of the resort and<br />

many fun activities for all adults and children.<br />

THE<br />

DANISH GIRL<br />

With the setting of Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark in the 1920s,<br />

the film stars Lili Elbe - one of the first known recipients of gender<br />

reassignment surgery in the world. Lili is a man named Ednar and used<br />

to have a happily married life with a female artist, Gerda Wegener. However,<br />

once Gerda painted her husband as a lady in her painting. Right at the very first<br />

moments touching on the dress and using red lipstick, Ednar realized his new<br />

identification and stared changing his appearance, making their marriage more<br />

difficult. The film is expected to win Oscar Award this year.<br />

The opponent of Saigon Heat on January 17th is Pilipinas Mx3 Kings ñ one of the two<br />

new teams participating in Asean Basketball League (ABL). What would be more exciting<br />

than watching the match between the Philipines Team of Pacquiao ñ the world boxing<br />

champion and Saigon Heat with the unknown Aguilas? That Saigon Heat was officially<br />

recognized as a member of ABL is a important catalyst for developing Vietnamese<br />

basketball. ABLwas founded in 2009 as the first truly regional sports entertainment<br />

property. Six teams participate in this year's ABL season come from five countries the<br />

Philippines (Pilipinas MX3 Kings), Thailand (HiTech Bangkok City, Mono Vampire),<br />

DEADPOOL - NEW WIND<br />

OF SUPERHEROES<br />

Fox will bring the most<br />

bizarre allergic people of<br />

Marvel back to screens at the<br />

beginning of 2<strong>01</strong>6. Fans got<br />

more excited when the official<br />

trailer with the truly comedy<br />

style of Deadpool was released.<br />

This film has a special<br />

appeal thanks to its interesting<br />

"anti-hero" features of the<br />

main character. Deadpool's original name is<br />

Wade Wilson and is a former test subject of<br />

the Weapon X program, possessing a regenerative<br />

healing factor and an unstable compiling<br />

of other "Weapon X" experiments. Deadpool's<br />

powers and personality traits combine to make<br />

a wild, mentally unstable, and unpredictable<br />

mercenary. Moreover, Deadpool knows he is<br />

a comic character and often talks with readers<br />

while fighting with his enemies and even acts<br />

against the author.<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>

The largest island in Vietnam has been<br />

developing fast with the best infrastructure,<br />

including an international airport and other<br />

chained services, promising to meet all<br />

demands of travelers. Featuring abundant<br />

natural resources, Phu Quoc has been<br />

invested in by large corporations such as<br />

Vingroup, Sun Group and BIM Group.<br />

The primary aims of the investments are<br />

to improve estates, resorts,<br />

tourism and entertainment<br />

services. Leading brands of<br />

hospitality management such<br />

as InterContinental® Hotels<br />

Group and AccorHotels also<br />

contribute to the development<br />

of this island.<br />

THE HOT POINT OF TOURISM INDUSTRY<br />

In June 2<strong>01</strong>5, aiming to serve<br />

locals and visitors, Vingroup<br />

launched its International<br />

General Hospital - Vinmec<br />

Phu Quoc while Vietnam’s<br />

largest wildlife conservation<br />

park - Vinpearl Safari Park was opened in late<br />

December 2<strong>01</strong>5.<br />

With the development aim of making Hon<br />

Thom the most attractive destination in<br />

the area, Sun Group has commenced the<br />

construction of a resort and amusement<br />

complex Hon Thom - Phu Quoc and the<br />

cable car line Hon Thom - Phu Quoc which<br />

connects the island to An Thoi town. With<br />

a length of 7,899.99m, this cable car will<br />

be the longest one in the world. In the near<br />

future, Hon Thom will feature a marina and<br />

offer seaplane services, allowing visitors to<br />

go sightseeing around Phu Quoc. Also, the<br />

Hon Thom - Phu Quoc complex will be built<br />

into a world-class resort with marine and<br />

food villages alongside an entertainment<br />

park featuring adventurous games and<br />

scuba diving.<br />

Apart from projects of large corporations<br />

in these fields, Phu Quoc enchants tourists<br />

with its charming natural beauty, precious<br />

natural resources, beaches, rivers, streams,<br />

PHU QUOC ENCHANTS<br />

AS WELL AS RICH<br />

CUISINES AND FRESH<br />

mountains, forests with a diversity of flora<br />

and fauna, as well as rich cuisines and fresh<br />

seafood.<br />

Vietnamese Government has adjusted its<br />

master plan to develop Phu Quoc Island and<br />

Kien Giang Province by 2030. By that time,<br />

Phu Quoc will become a special economic<br />

and administrative center of Vietnam.<br />

Hopefully, Phu Quoc can make use of<br />

its natural beauties,<br />

resources and policies to<br />

develop high-end modern<br />

services while preserving<br />

the original values of<br />

landscape and natural<br />

conditions.<br />

phase of the project, 380 hectares of primitive<br />

forest has been developed into an open zoo<br />

and a safari park. Visitors can explore and<br />

observe the wildlife from a highly protected<br />

bus with the model of “animals released,<br />

people confined” for the first time in Vietnam.<br />

Up till now, the park has been home to<br />

3000 wild animals representing 150 different<br />

species, many of which are considered rare<br />

including 200 flamingoes, 100 rhinos, and<br />

60 giraffes.<br />

In Vinpearl Safari Phu Quoc, visitors,<br />

especially children, can explore the wildlife,<br />

witness and interact with rare animals which<br />

are often seen in movies.<br />

Ong Lang Beach<br />

Situated between the road connecting<br />

Duong Dong town and the North of<br />

the island, unlike noisy Sao beach, Ong<br />

Lang beach keeps its pristine beauty.<br />

This serene and clear beach is an ideal<br />

place for you to go swimming and<br />

bask the gorgeous sunset of Phu Quoc.<br />

Visitors can spend hours relaxing under<br />

casuarina trees or lying on the beach<br />

gazing at the turquoise water and<br />

enjoying delicious seafood. There is a<br />

creek that joins the sea here, forming a<br />

safe area for children to swim in.<br />

On the beach, locals lease hammocks,<br />

sell BBQs, and chicken and fresh<br />

seafood at prices around VND200,000/<br />

kg. You can also buy seafood at<br />

markets and grill them over coals.<br />

Phu Quoc National Park<br />

Located across the Northeast of the island,<br />

Phu Quoc National Park is surrounded by<br />

three mountain ranges, namely Ham Ninh,<br />

Ham Rong and Ganh Dau. The National Park<br />

still maintains the entire primary forest with<br />

ancient trees, hills, mountains, streams and<br />

waterfalls. To discover the forest, you can<br />

park your car near the signage of the park<br />

and start walking on a 5-km path through<br />

the forest.<br />

Walking in the primary forest under strangely<br />

shaped foliage, you can take in fresh cool air<br />

with the natural scents of wet leaves. Deeper<br />

into the forest are thousand-year-old trees<br />

with interlaced roots, forest termite nests and<br />

myrtle trees laden with fruits. During your<br />

journey, you will also listen to the babble of<br />

streams or be lucky to see animals such as<br />

monkeys, squirrels and reptiles.<br />

Fresh Squid<br />

Fresh squid in Phu Quoc is considered the best, and<br />

far superior to squid in Danang, Nha Trang and<br />

Phan Thiet. Squid is caught by fishermen and quickly<br />

transported to the mainland to keep its freshness,<br />

sweetness and texture. Whether you visit seafood<br />

markets or walk along pristine beaches on the<br />

island, you can easily see familiar images of lined<br />

trays full of live squid with sparkling color-changing<br />

skin. You will be offered an array of delicious dishes<br />

made from squid such as squid hot pot, grilled squid,<br />

steamed squid with lemon grass and stewed squid<br />

with fish sauce.<br />

Note:<br />

ü Apart from herring<br />

salad and fresh squid,<br />

you can try many other<br />

foods such as barracuda<br />

salad, grilled grouperfish,<br />

grilled snails, grilled coi<br />

bien mai, Ham Ninh<br />

crabs, steamed crayfish,<br />

roasted sea urchins,<br />

grilled abalone sea snails,<br />

seafood mushroom<br />

soup and more.<br />

ü Herring salad is<br />

best served with<br />

myrtle wine as<br />

herring are fresh<br />

and contain lot<br />

of protein, a little<br />

alcohol will be<br />

better for digestion.<br />

Herring salad<br />

Herring salad (Goi ca trich) is one of the most<br />

popular dishes on Phu Quoc. The Herring fish<br />

must be fresh with white shiny scales. After being<br />

cleaned, the meat on two sides of the fish are<br />

filleted. The most essential part of this dish is sauce<br />

which is made from chili, garlic, sugar, Phu Quoc<br />

fish sauce, and peanuts. All these ingredients are<br />

blended with water, creating a flavorsome sauce.<br />

Herring salad is often served with slices of chili,<br />

coconut and onion. When preparing this dish, you<br />

just need to choose greens such as salad, and<br />

fragrant basil, and put them on a girdle cake with<br />

herring, onion, coconut and chili. The last step is<br />

rolling them all and dipping it in the sauce.<br />

ß Sao Beach: the famous white<br />

Aside from exploring pristine beaches, you<br />

can book an optional tour to explore the<br />

island, go fishing and diving to see coral<br />

reefs. Caught fish will be served right<br />

onboard the ship. During the itinerary, you<br />

are allowed to dive to view awesome coral<br />

reefs as well as the diversity of marine<br />

life near some small islands of An Thoi in<br />

the South. Another favorite place is Ong<br />

Doi where you can take in the sunrise<br />

and sunset in the same position. The last<br />

place along the beach is Gieng Ngu (Ngu<br />

Well) - a relic of King Gia Long. This fresh<br />

water well is located adjacent to the sea<br />

but is never salty or dry. Hon Dam, Hon<br />

Roi and Hon Mong Tay are also beautiful<br />

pristine sites.<br />

After a long day traveling, when night<br />

falls, it is time for you to enjoy the calm<br />

sea and participate in exciting activities<br />

such as night squid fishing. What could be<br />

better than catching your own squid then<br />

giving your fresh squid to the chefs and<br />

waiting for your delicious dishes? There<br />

are many agencies providing tours for<br />

individuals and groups of travelers.<br />

A light pink dress will bring you an elegant look which is naturally harmonious<br />

with the beautiful landscape of Phu Quoc island. A wide-brimmed hat is certainly<br />

indispensable accessory to avoid sunlight of the tropical island. In addition to<br />

elegant high heels, prepare flat sandals so that you can comfortably walk on the<br />

beautiful sandy beach. Blue accessories such as sunglasses and a handbag will<br />

make your set of items perfect.<br />

Tet is the most important occasion in the Vietnamese calendar and is a great time for<br />

everyone to explore new lands and relax in their favorite destinations. These tips and<br />

advice will help you prepare for the holiday and start the year cheerfully.<br />

By: Thuy Linh<br />

PACK LUGGAGE AND<br />

SELECT SUITABLE OUTFITS<br />

After finalizing the destination<br />

you are going to visit, you<br />

should choose suitable outfits<br />

depending on climate and<br />

geographical features of the<br />

location. Wide brimmed hat,<br />

swimsuit and sunscreen for<br />

sunny beaches; warm clothes,<br />

thick scarves, gloves and hiking<br />

shoes ... when visiting highlands<br />

to contemplate the beauty of<br />

blooming flowers. If you intend<br />

to visit your relatives during<br />

your trip, do not forget to<br />

wear elegant clothes. Bright<br />

colors such as red, yellow and<br />

orange will bring you more<br />

luck and happiness during the<br />

first days of the year.<br />

Bring personal documents such<br />

as ID cards, passports, and<br />

birth certificates for children<br />

and keep them safe during the<br />

trip. You can also get copies<br />

of these documents and keep<br />

them separately in case you<br />

misplace the originals. To<br />

ensure that your holiday will<br />

not be interrupted, you should<br />

bring some kinds of medicine<br />

for common illnesses. If you<br />

start your journey on the two<br />

first days of Tet, some snacks<br />

and drinks will be necessary<br />

since restaurants are likely to<br />

be closed during these days.<br />

FIND SOMEONE TO<br />

TAKE CARE OF YOUR<br />

HOUSE<br />

It would be better if you ask<br />

your relatives or neighbors<br />

to look after your house<br />

when your entire family is<br />

away. Switch off all electric<br />

devices and appliances in<br />

the kitchen before leaving.<br />

Give your phone number<br />

to your neighbor so that<br />

they can call you as soon<br />

as possible if something<br />

comes up.<br />

SEND YOUR PETS TO<br />

“HOTELS”<br />

Many families spend<br />

their Tet holiday visiting<br />

faraway destinations with<br />

long journeys. However,<br />

don’t forget that lovely<br />

puppies, cute cats and<br />

witty parrots also want to<br />

“enjoy the holiday” and<br />

need to be cared for. You<br />

can ask your friends to find<br />

reliable hotels for pets,<br />

veterinary clinics and pet<br />

centers. Cost, reliability<br />

and quality of service are<br />

the most important criteria<br />

to be considered. Prices<br />

will depend on your pets’<br />

weight and needs as well as<br />

how “fastidious” they are.<br />

Remember to book a place<br />

in advance as these “hotels”<br />

are often “full” during the<br />

holiday period.<br />

PREPARE TRANSPORTATION AND ACCOMMODATION<br />

During Tet holiday, there is a dramatic increase in the demand for<br />

transportation, air tickets, train tickets and hotels . You had better plan<br />

your holiday with details such as times and places. Buy tickets and book<br />

hotels in advance to ensure reasonable prices. You can visit ivivu.com and<br />

other charismatic comparison websites to enhance your choices. Do not<br />

miss chances to enjoy privileges offered by hotels and resorts this season.<br />

We wish you a happy Tet holiday with memorable experiences.<br />

VISIT TRADITIONAL<br />

VIETNAMESE MARKETS:<br />

REMEMBER TO BUY<br />

FLOWERS!<br />

No matter if<br />

I'm travelling<br />

around my<br />

country or<br />

visiting a<br />

new land in the world, the<br />

very first place I go isn't a<br />

landscape, but a market.<br />

Nowhere else can give<br />

you more real images of<br />

locals than in a market.<br />

And, of course, shopping<br />

at traditional Vietnamese<br />

market is always my choice<br />

on the first days of the year.<br />

Foreigners find it quite weird<br />

when realizing that in these<br />

markets, there are hundreds<br />

of flowers and greens which<br />

are just used to ... eat. A<br />

friend of mine has shared<br />

that culinary culture is a<br />

door to the soul of a land.<br />

When wandering around<br />

Vietnamese markets, I feel<br />

our "soul" is so beautiful and<br />

harmonious as we eat plenty<br />

of flowers and greens. Try<br />

it, and after the trip, when<br />

looking at a flower or a leaf,<br />

you will likely ask yourself<br />

whether it is edible or not.<br />

Aside from tasting<br />

scrumptious dishes, there<br />

is a greater way to explore<br />

culinary world: cook a dish as<br />

a local do! In any Vietnamese<br />

kitchen, you can find so<br />

many {toys} such as a plastic<br />

tube used for removing water<br />

morning glory (spinach)'s<br />

leaves, a pig-iron knife or<br />

a tool to prepare banana<br />

blossom. Surprise yourself<br />

by cooking pho (Vietnamese<br />

noodles), rolls, beef roll with<br />

piper lolot or lotus salad - the<br />

dishes that you often admire<br />

on newspaper and travel<br />

magazines. Especially, try to<br />

make goi cuon (translucent<br />

fresh spring roll) - one<br />

of the 10 most delicious<br />

Vietnamese dishes. You only<br />

need to roll all ingredients<br />

including prawn, pork,<br />

vegetables, small spring<br />

onion and shallot together<br />

inside a girdle cake named<br />

banh trang. Fast and yummy!<br />

It is also the reason why this<br />

dish is favored on special<br />

occasions as hostesses do<br />

not need spend much time<br />

preparing for large meals.<br />

If you want to reduce the<br />

amount of glucose, then take<br />

cabbage, or other leaves to<br />

roll with shrimp, meat and all<br />

sorts of vegetables. Easy and<br />

pleasant! Don't worry if you<br />

don't cook well, just }roll} to<br />

the kitchen and enjoy your<br />

"work of art"!<br />

LEAVES AND FLOWERS:<br />

EVERY DISH IS DELICIOUS!<br />

Japanese people fry marble<br />

leaves to eat, French cook<br />

beef with artichoke flower,<br />

but no country uses as many<br />

kinds of flowers in cooking as<br />

Vietnam. In the past, almost<br />

all Vietnamese people didn't<br />

have enough money to buy<br />

white rice and fresh meat, so<br />

they used leaves as spices and<br />

got flowers and fruits served<br />

as side food. Tet was the<br />

only time they ate meat and<br />

eggs. Pork simmered with<br />

eggs became a traditional<br />

dish on this celebration.<br />

Nowadays, foreign visitors<br />

usually "oh" "wow" when<br />

noticing Vietnamese people<br />

use a dozen kinds of leaves<br />

in a meal or stir-fry flower to<br />

eat instead of ice cream on<br />

hot days.<br />

Apart from the main<br />

Vietnamese can create<br />

hundreds of different<br />

dishes with a variety<br />

of flowers: pumpkin<br />

flowers, banana blossom, sesbania<br />

sesban, hyacinth flowers, shallot<br />

flowers, loopah flowers, lotus,<br />

sadao flowers, fig flowers, telosma<br />

cordata and more. In the South of<br />

Vietnam, yellow pumpkin flowers<br />

are most favored as they are eyecatching<br />

and yummy. Once while<br />

eating pumpkin flowers stuffed<br />

with prawn, my friend was so<br />

surprised to find out that to cook<br />

this dish, we only select {male}<br />

flowers and save {female} ones<br />

for the continuance of race. Boiled<br />

pumpkin flowers are sweet and<br />

the petiole is a little bit tough.<br />

You can explore the art<br />

of flowers and leaves in<br />

Vietnamese cuisine at:<br />

Cuisines made from pumpkin are<br />

often served on festive seasons. I<br />

love pumpkin flowers stuffed with<br />

prawn, which is crispy, aromatic<br />

with sweet flavor of prawn.<br />

When you get bored with flowers,<br />

try grilled beef with piper lolot,<br />

fried rice with Ocimum basilicum<br />

L. var. pilosum or BBQ chicken<br />

with bamboo. Grilled beef with<br />

piper lolot is a signature dish. I<br />

like sitting somewhere in small<br />

lane in the heart of Saigon,<br />

chatting with friends and sniffing<br />

the smell of fat grilled on a<br />

broiling plate on slightly rainy<br />

days. After the are grilled, piper<br />

lolot leaves still remain green.<br />

This kind of leaf makes the dish<br />

more flavorsome and prevents<br />

beef from being burned when we<br />

use coal. Taste it once and you<br />

will always be enticed by piper<br />

lolot. Grilled beef is more<br />

special with piper lolot.<br />

Also, piper lolot is good<br />

for your health, especially<br />

when you get tired because<br />

of changing weather. Order<br />

some plates of grilled beef<br />

with piper lolot and you can<br />

refill your energy.<br />

If you have a chance to visit<br />

Phu Yen Province, the set of<br />

{Dear Brother, I see yellow<br />

flowers on green grass}, do<br />

not forget to experience rice<br />

with Ocimum basilicum L. var.<br />

pilosum (Vietnamese basil).<br />

Strangely aromatic! Don't<br />

confuse this kind of leaf with<br />

Thai basil as Vietnamese basil<br />

is more aromatic. These leaves<br />

are crushed and mixed with rice.<br />

To completely enjoy its flavor,<br />

fried rice is recommended. For<br />

those who have a headache, this<br />

dish will help them to release<br />

the pain as Vietnamese basil<br />

is also a traditional medicine.<br />

It's quite weird but if they are<br />

planted in sandy soil in the harsh<br />

Central of Vietnam, they are more<br />

flavorsome than those planted in<br />

fertile lands. So, if you want to<br />

taste the Central flavor, then buy<br />

this kind of leaf to cook with rice<br />

or mix with salt.<br />

Many international tourists<br />

shared that while travelling<br />

in Vietnam, the best thing is<br />

eating. They can eat a lot without<br />

worrying about their weight as<br />

there are lots of healthy foods.<br />

The culinary world is the world<br />

of flowers, leaves, fruits, from a<br />

variety of spices such as small<br />

spring onion, cumin, coriander<br />

and perilla to signature dishes.<br />

You are free to bring all kinds of<br />

flowers, and even bamboo to your<br />

kitchen to cook.<br />

- Could I sit here?<br />

I look away from my laptop when I hear such a low voice.<br />

Stowing our luggage on the next chair, I am about to go back to<br />

the statistic dancing on my screen. However, I am "wakened"<br />

again by a strange yet familiar smell which I can't exactly define.<br />

Getting more curious, I glance at the small fabric bag tagged<br />

"For my little daughter" of the man. Dried pomelo peel, lemongrass,<br />

gleditsia, sweet grass... and a small bunch of old coriander.<br />

Yes, the Tet smell! It's the smell of my childhood 20<br />

years ago, the smell which made me and my sister excited on<br />

the last day of the year.<br />

Sometimes, it's not easy to find raw materials<br />

to prepare traditional fragrant water.<br />

Therefore, Slow living introduces you a more<br />

simple formula to bring the Tet smell to your<br />

house. Try to mix essential oil as follow:<br />

. 5ml sandalwood oil - 10ml cypress<br />

essential oil - 50ml rose essential oil -<br />

15ml pomelo peel oil - 20ml tangerine<br />

peel oil (for 100ml "Tet smell")<br />

The Tet smell is so sweet and warm with<br />

familiar scents of pomelo and tangerine peel<br />

with sandalwood and cypress oil, bringing<br />

you tranquility in this busy life. Try this "slow<br />

living formula" by bathing with a few drops<br />

of the mixed oils or burning with candles,<br />

letting the smell spread throughout your room.<br />

You will have great moments.<br />

My mother shares that "bathing in fragrant water on the last day of the year<br />

is considered a special custom to wipe out all the bad luck of the previous<br />

year and welcome in the luck and happiness of the new year". The most<br />

wonderful moments are the times children like me sniff the scent of fragrant<br />

coriander combined with the slight smell of pomelo peel, tangerine peel and<br />

lemongrass. My Tet memories are stored as these warm and sweet smells.<br />

Immersing myself in the sea of work, I travel a lot and have chances to try<br />

many premium fragrances from around the world. I seem to forget the<br />

scents of childhood then today, I am accidentally reminded about them. After<br />

2 hours flying, I will go back home to find these pure smells. The first<br />

place that I'll go to is not my office but my house. I will slow down my life<br />

pace, strolling down streets to see the colors of Tet and to sniff the Tet smell<br />

releasing from the pot of fragrant water in my house.<br />

Key Color Tones<br />

In 2<strong>01</strong>6, the trend of using<br />

pantone colors is created with<br />

differences for three areas:<br />

Americas, Europe and Asia. In<br />

America, Uni-Blue takes over<br />

the positions of cobalt blue<br />

and dark blue. Representing<br />

equality and unity, Uni-Blue<br />

signifies the connection of<br />

people with each other, the<br />

space, ideas and memories.<br />

In the mean time, Asia,<br />

especially in tropical<br />

countries, keeps the beauty of<br />

nature right in living spaces<br />

by using Nature Green and<br />

wallpapers with natural<br />

patterns. In big cities with<br />

high urbanization rates,<br />

Nature Green will be a perfect<br />

choice to balance the bustling<br />

life, harmoniously mixed with<br />

natural tranquility.<br />

Decorating your house would be more<br />

interesting if you use unparalleled<br />

DIY (do it yourself) items. These<br />

decorations include things made from<br />

zinc and small buttons. Zinc plates are<br />

cut in different lengths and wrapped<br />

around to form a trunk while colorful<br />

buttons are put together on zinc fibers<br />

to create trees.<br />

Another suggestion is reusing<br />

the lights you have used for your<br />

Christmas tree. Cut colored papers<br />

into parallel pillars, then stick the ends<br />

of paper to make a lantern. Attach this<br />

lantern to the string lights and you will<br />

have new decorations for New Year at<br />

a low cost.<br />

From the view of an expat<br />

N OT JUST ABOUT BEAUTY<br />

102<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong><br />

Tet or Lunar New Year is the most important holiday in Vietnam<br />

which gets the attention of many foreigners. Let’s see how a<br />

Spanish expat whose wife is Vietnamese talks about Tet.<br />

I<br />

had just been in Vietnam for few months when I started<br />

hearing about Tet, Tet holiday and the Lunar New Year. At that<br />

time, I was teaching at a university, and as the key dates were<br />

approaching, Tet seemed to the most popular subject shared by<br />

almost all of my students. Many of them were far from Ho Chi<br />

Minh City and what they were looking is not only a break from<br />

class but also a great time together with their families.<br />

As I had never experienced Tet before, I asked around a lot, to see what<br />

the excitement was about, and to know what to expect. And if there is<br />

one word that defined it, that word was positive. Without any exception,<br />

everyone was very happy about the Lunar New Year, being with the<br />

family, and enjoying the overall experience.<br />

Tet is definitely the most important holiday in Vietnam, where towns<br />

and villages all over the country are the scene of vibrant celebrations.<br />

Every street dresses up with beautiful flowers and decorations. Every<br />

effort is made to gather all family members, no matter how far away they<br />

may be. Together they will bid farewell the old year while welcoming

the new one, hoping that it will<br />

bring health, money and success<br />

to all. When Tet arrives, knocking<br />

on the doors, so do relatives. For<br />

many Vietnamese, Tet is the only<br />

time of the year when they have a<br />

long holiday; hence, they make it<br />

possible for all to be together in their<br />

hometown with the family and even<br />

extended family.<br />

If you have never experienced Tet<br />

I strongly recommend you do so, if<br />

possible with a Vietnamese family,<br />

as the experience is fascinating. At<br />

that time of the year, the weather<br />

tends to be rather hot, and beautiful<br />

flowers bloom all over, presenting<br />

us with an array of colours and<br />

scents. In big cities like Ho Chi<br />

Minh City, you can expect beautiful<br />

exhibitions, usually themed around<br />

the New Year’s character, but as<br />

well you can experience exciting<br />

flower contests that bring together<br />

the best examples from all over the<br />

country. For many years Nguyen<br />

Hue has been the centre of Tet<br />

celebrations in Saigon, where after<br />

weeks of careful preparation, the<br />

street is dressed with amazing<br />

flower displays, cultural symbols,<br />

performances and exhibitions.<br />

The beauty of flower shows is<br />

greatly enriched by the many<br />

families who bring their children<br />

to enjoy the charm and elegance<br />

of the exhibitions, many of whom<br />

are dressed according to traditional<br />

Vietnamese customs, sharing<br />

happy moments,<br />

usually with three or<br />

even four generations<br />

together. Tet holiday<br />

is also a great occasion<br />

to admire the beauty<br />

of the many women<br />

wearing ao dai, the<br />

traditional Vietnamese<br />

outfit, many of which<br />

are hand crafted, so<br />

rich and varied that<br />

it is almost impossible to find two<br />

women wearing the same.<br />

BUT TET IS<br />

NOT JUST<br />

ABOUT<br />

BEAUTY, IT<br />

IS ABOUT<br />

FAMILY,<br />

TRADITION<br />

AND<br />

GENEROSITY.<br />

Everything starts a few days before<br />

the first day of Tet, with a detailed<br />

cleaning of the house, “cleaning”<br />

the bad luck away, and giving way<br />

to the prosperity the New Year will<br />

bring. Tet is also time to remember<br />

those who left the family. Food<br />

will be offered at the altar for<br />

the ancestors. But Tet is not just<br />

about beauty, it is about family,<br />

tradition and generosity. If you<br />

visit a Vietnamese family during<br />

this occasion, you will enjoy their<br />

unlimited generosity. I<br />

usually spend Tet with<br />

my wife’s family in Sa<br />

Dec, a beautiful little<br />

town in the Mekong<br />

delta. From the time I<br />

arrive to when I leave,<br />

relatives always go the<br />

extra mile to ensure<br />

that I am happy. I have<br />

plenty to eat and drink;<br />

in fact, I’m always spoilt!<br />

Food is another of the great things<br />

that you can enjoy during Tet, as<br />

every family will prepare lots of<br />

delicious food to share with friends,<br />

family and visitors. Many of the<br />

dishes are typical of this season, an<br />

explosion of variety and flavours.<br />

During Tet, the first day is usually<br />

dedicated to the family, with lots of<br />

eating and drinking going on. On<br />

the second day, the house opens<br />

to friends and neighbours, while<br />

on the third day people mostly go<br />

around visiting others. Officially,<br />

Tet holiday lasts about three days,<br />

however, in some places it can<br />

last for weeks, especially in the<br />

countryside.<br />

If you stay in the big cities, the<br />

experience is quite different, as<br />

somehow they almost become<br />

ghost towns, with millions of<br />

people leaving to go back to their<br />

hometowns. Most of the businesses<br />

close, so if you plan to be in a big<br />

(or small) city during Tet, you’d<br />

better stock up food, while enjoying<br />

driving on the semi-deserted roads.<br />

Late winter in Hanoi, when the coldness of the Northeast monsoon has not been<br />

washed, the streets have already lit up with Tet colors. They are the green of<br />

trees and Vietnamese dong leaves, the red and pink of peach blossoms and the<br />

yellow of kumquats, all together marking the arrival of spring.<br />

The nearer Tet comes, the more cheerful the atmosphere is. Locals welcome Tet by<br />

preparing not only material things but also spiritual ones. Tet is the time for family<br />

gathering. All family’s members together clean and decorate their houses, go shopping<br />

and prepare offerings to their ancestors and temples.<br />

interview By: Thuong Tran<br />

Rehahn first came to Hoi An in 2007 and<br />

instantly fell in love with this little town.<br />

“I’ve been living here for 4 years and can’t<br />

imagine going back to France”, the French<br />

photographer shared the story about his special<br />

predestined relationship with the country and<br />

Vietnamese people.<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>: I would like to start our conversation<br />

by talking about Hoi An, the place where you’ve been<br />

living. It’s a typical town with all almost Vietnamese<br />

and Asian features. What interesting things have you,<br />

a Western guy, found here for 5 years?<br />

-- Rehahn Croquevielle: Yes, Hoi An offers me<br />

exactly what an artist needs - a peaceful life in a<br />

natural environment. It’s probably the most visited<br />

city in Vietnam, but it’s also very easy to find a quiet<br />

place to focus on my work. People are not running<br />

all the time and there are not too many things<br />

distracting me!<br />

In term of photography, it’s like an open-air studio;<br />

yellow walls, a traditional lifestyle, friendly people.<br />

It’s a kind of paradise for a photographer!<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>: In the eyes of a photographer, what<br />

time of the day and which season do you like the<br />

most in Hoi An?<br />

I would say that mornings are my favorite. At 5am<br />

during the early sunrise, the sunlight comes out<br />

gradually from the far away sea. The scenery is<br />

simply amazing. I live only less than one kilometer<br />

away from An Bang beach. So, sunrise or sunset is<br />

the perfect time for me to capture nature’s beauty.<br />

Also, it is in those times that I get to experience<br />

the stillness of Hoi An through the wind’s gentle<br />

breeze in the lotus field right in front of my home.<br />

I can also hear water running - coming from a few<br />

village neighbors watering their vegetables. I live in<br />

the area of Tra Que which is famous for growing<br />

different kinds of vegetables to support all of Hoi<br />

An. That’s why you can find a few shots of this in<br />

my photos.<br />

All year round we have different kinds of sunlight<br />

but my favorite moment is probably during Tet<br />

(when it’s not too cloudy!). It is also during<br />

REHAHN CROQUEVIELLE, THE AUTHOR OF “VIETNAm - mOSAIC OF CONTRASTS”, A FAMOUS SERIES OF PHOTOGRAPHY BOOKS<br />

11<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>

this time of the year that I see more happy people.<br />

Everyone in Hoi An seems to be slowing down a lot<br />

with less tourists in the city. People are looking less<br />

grumpy and are smiling a lot more at each other.<br />

THE COUNTRY<br />

HAS AN<br />

INCREDIBLE<br />

DIVERSITY<br />

IN TERMS OF<br />

LANDSCAPES<br />

AND<br />

PEOPLE. THE<br />

VIETNAMESE<br />

DESERVE<br />

A SERIES<br />

OF BOOKS<br />

CONSISTING<br />

OF DIFFERENT<br />

ETHNICITIES.<br />

(Photographer<br />

Rehahn)<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>: Your photos of Vietnam are well-known,<br />

they are mainly taken in the North Western upland and<br />

central highlands of Vietnam. Are you going to take more photos<br />

in the South for the next collection?<br />

I have a lot of Vietnamese friends and fans that are from the<br />

South. They have asked and some even complained to me<br />

(smile) many times that they rarely see any photos of the South<br />

of Vietnam. Like I have mentioned, Vietnam still has many<br />

colors for me to explore and I am slowly moving southward.<br />

I prefer taking my time in each region to extract as much as I<br />

can, because I find that every place in Vietnam is rich in culture.<br />

I can be in Ha Giang in the North and it is totally different from<br />

An Giang in the South, even though both places are in the same<br />

country. My project is to explore the entire country and I’ve<br />

already started to explore An Giang province. I already took<br />

new photos for my 3 rd book... however, I prefer to talk more<br />

about this project once it is completed.<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>: As far as I know, at the end of 2<strong>01</strong>5, you published<br />

the second part of the photography book called “Vietnam<br />

- Mosaic of Contrasts”. Could you kindly share more about this<br />

project? And your plans in 2<strong>01</strong>6?<br />

This is a series of books that constitute the mosaic of<br />

ALL YEAR<br />

ROUND WE HAVE<br />

DIFFERENT KINDS<br />

OF SUNLIGHT BUT<br />

MY FAVORITE<br />

MOMENT IS<br />

PROBABLY<br />

DURING TET<br />

(WHEN IT’S NOT<br />

TOO CLOUDY!). IT<br />

IS ALSO DURING<br />

THIS TIME OF<br />

THE YEAR THAT I<br />

SEE MORE HAPPY<br />

PEOPLE<br />

Vietnam. The country has an<br />

incredible diversity in terms<br />

of landscapes and people. I<br />

don’t think that a single book<br />

can show this diversity. I felt<br />

that the first book was made<br />

by a photographer who just<br />

discovered the country and<br />

this new volume is more<br />

about remote<br />

areas. I’ve met<br />

some ethnic<br />

groups of less<br />

than 1000<br />

people like<br />

the Bo Y or<br />

Pu Peo... The<br />

Vietnamese<br />

deserve a<br />

series of books<br />

consisting of different ethnicities. I am thinking<br />

about making at least one other book to show<br />

the South and life in the cities. The plan for 2<strong>01</strong>6<br />

is to collect all the ethnic costumes and exhibit<br />

them all over the<br />

world. The first date<br />

will be September<br />

2<strong>01</strong>6 in France. It<br />

is a festival visited<br />

by 200 000 people<br />

every year. I will<br />

bring 20 to 25<br />

costumes combined<br />

with 40 photos of<br />

the country. I want to show that Vietnam is not only 5 or 6<br />

touristic cities but there is so much more to discover.<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>: You travel frequently by motorbike to take photos.<br />

You seem to be a real Vietnamese person now! Do you travel<br />

alone or do you get support from locals?<br />

I always travel by motorbike because I like to be free and not a<br />

lot of people can be patient enough when I take photos. I like to<br />

meet locals and my fans along the way and when I find a good<br />

model, I can spend 2 hours with them. Of course, I feel like a<br />

Vietnamese person, I speak the language a little bit, I sleep in<br />

Nha Nghi, eat in local restaurants...<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>: What do you usually do during Tet holiday? Based<br />

on what you have observed and experienced, what are the<br />

differences between Tet and New Year’s in the Western world?<br />

Actually, I don’t really celebrate the Western New Year but I<br />

like to celebrate Tet when I’m in Vietnam. I have many friends<br />

so I’m never alone. But I don’t drink beer, so I avoid parties...<br />

A lot of my Western friends living here, like my<br />

family, will also try to blend in and get together to<br />

celebrate. Naturally, we don’t follow the exact same<br />

traditions or eat the same dishes as the Vietnamese<br />

families. To us it is like a post-Christmas celebration.<br />

I also spend Tet travelling outside of Vietnam just<br />

like many Vietnamese people do since half of the<br />

businesses in Hoi An are closed as are my 2 galleries<br />

and ice-cream shop! It is like a long break for my<br />

family and me.<br />

Sincere thanks to photographer Rehahn for spending time<br />

with Travellive and sharing these interesting stories. We<br />

wish you a merry Tet Holiday!<br />

After her journeys to Himalayas during<br />

3 years, in January 2<strong>01</strong>6, Quynh Anh<br />

introduced her “Himalaya” exhibition,<br />

aiming at sharing her experiences and new<br />

views of this mysterious land. “Probably,<br />

in the previous life, I was born somewhere<br />

in Himalayas” she said when being asked<br />

why she spent so much time taking photos<br />

here. For her, this land features an invisible<br />

attractiveness which enchants her to come<br />

back right after her first visit.<br />

Himalayas have been the inspiration of<br />

many films and photos thanks to their<br />

mysterious beauty of the majestic nature.<br />

On “the roof of the world” with rugged<br />

terrain and extreme weather, everything<br />

here from stones and grass to people<br />

exudes the spiritual beauty of purity.<br />

ONE INTERESTING EUROPEAN<br />

TRADITION, WHICH I LIKE MOST,<br />

IS SENDING POSTCARDS TO<br />

BELOVED FRIENDS AND FAMILY,<br />

WHICH SHARE STORIES ABOUT<br />

THE SENDER’S JOURNEYS.<br />

Text: Trang Ami<br />

Late 2<strong>01</strong>5, a message sent by Ms.<br />

Cäline, a teacher in Noirmoutieren-l’Ile<br />

(Pays de la Loire, in the<br />

West of France), had been shared<br />

widely on social networks. The<br />

message calls upon everybody<br />

from around the world to send<br />

postcards of their hometown to<br />

the school that she is working<br />

for. These postcards will help<br />

students at Rocher des Lutins<br />

primary school understand more<br />

about the world they are living<br />

in. Giving an explanation about<br />

the campaign, Ms Cäline shares<br />

that “Names such as Norway or<br />

Japan are very vague concepts to<br />

my students. For them, they are<br />

just names of certain places.<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong> 127

On special occasions,<br />

not only the French<br />

but also other<br />

European and<br />

American people<br />

often send postcards<br />

to their friends and<br />

relatives.<br />

Young students cannot imagine what<br />

life’s like there and don’t know what<br />

customs people follow in those places.<br />

And of course they also don’t know the<br />

differences between them.” Cäline also<br />

shares that she hopes the students will<br />

be more motivated to learn geography<br />

when they receive the postcards with<br />

pictures of unknown land on one side<br />

and great blessings on the other. Senders<br />

are also requested to give their email<br />

addresses so that she and her students<br />

can express their gratitude and send<br />

back images and paintings combined<br />

with best wishes.<br />

More than 80,000 shares were made<br />

a mere 48 hours after it was posted on<br />

Facebook. This campaign became the<br />

most popular campaign among French<br />

communities.<br />

Ms. Cäline’s inspirational story got<br />

huge attention as it is extraordinary for<br />

strangers to send postcards. In their daily<br />

lives, especially on special occasions, not<br />

only the French but also other European<br />

American<br />

people often send postcards to their<br />

friends and relatives.<br />

and<br />

Originating in Austria<br />

in the late 19 th century,<br />

postcards initiated a new<br />

method of sharing short<br />

messages between those<br />

who know each other well. Sometimes,<br />

a postcard is sent with the purpose of<br />

arranging an appointment. For instance,<br />

by reading a postcard, the one living<br />

at one end of the city would know that<br />

they are supposed to meet with their<br />

friend living on the other end at a bar<br />

in the afternoon. Postcards became<br />

most popular during the first 20 years<br />

of the 20 th century, particularly during<br />

World War I. In prisons, this mean<br />

of communication was preferred by<br />

military officials as it helped them to<br />

simplify the work of censorship. In war<br />

Further information:<br />

ü There is a postcard museum<br />

in France. You can get more<br />

information about millions of<br />

postcards from around the world<br />

that were sent in different periods<br />

of time. Address: Musäe de la Carte<br />

Postale, 4 avenue Tournelli 06600<br />

Antibes - France.<br />

ü If you want to join the campaign<br />

of Ms. Cäline from Rocher des Lutins<br />

school, you can send a letter to 1<br />

Rue des coles, 85330, Noirmoutier<br />

en l’ile France before July 2<strong>01</strong>6.<br />

ü Apart from traditional paper, in<br />

Michigan (USA), thin wood is used<br />

to make postcards. At the same<br />

time, people living on tropical islands<br />

create their own postcards from<br />

coconut shells.<br />

ü In Europe, old postcards are<br />

displayed and sold in open markets<br />

at various prices depending on the<br />

original date of the stamp.<br />

museums, sometimes, you can still read old,<br />

tear-jerking postcards.<br />

“I’m fine. Sometimes, I’m allowed to play<br />

music which helps me feel less sorrow when<br />

I’m missing you. Wait for me, darling”,<br />

“Think of your future and find someone<br />

better than me, please” - the messages<br />

written on these postcards could have<br />

changed a girl’s entire life.<br />

Nowadays, postcards play a vital role in<br />

sharing stories about the sender’s journeys.<br />

On one side there is always a photo of a<br />

landscape and on the other side there is<br />

space for the sender to write down their<br />

experiences and feelings. Postcards never<br />

upset anyone.<br />

Despite having left France, I always<br />

remember the image of Mrs. Renäe bustling<br />

Nowadays, postcards play a vital role in sharing stories about the sender’s journeys. On one<br />

side there’s always a photo of a landscape and on the other side there is space for the sender<br />

to write down their experiences and feelings. Postcards never upset anyone.<br />

Even though the world has changed with<br />

rise and fall and many postcards have been<br />

sent among generations during the past<br />

120 years, postcards have always been A6<br />

(10.5 x 14.8 cm) sized rectangular pieces of<br />

cardboard.<br />

One interesting feature of postcards is<br />

that they are sent without being put into<br />

an envelope (but you still need a stamp, a<br />

name and an address of the sender and the<br />

receiver). Everyone, from the mailman to the<br />

fastidious housekeeper to the devoted father,<br />

can read the message on the postcard.<br />

Therefore, the content is less private and<br />

usually written in a positive manner so that<br />

everyone reading it has a reason to smile.<br />

about the kitchen where she could look onto<br />

the lane near her house. She waited for<br />

the mailman and whenever she could, she<br />

would slowly walk up to the window and<br />

pull up a cart containing some postcards.<br />

During the two main holidays (winter and<br />

summer), what she looked forward to the<br />

most were postcards sent by her children<br />

who resided somewhere in the world. Maybe<br />

they were at one of the destinations she and<br />

her husband visited or at a certain scenery<br />

she still wished to visit. The happiness these<br />

postcards have brought her is immeasurable<br />

as they let her know her children are<br />

thinking about her whenever they are on a<br />

journey.<br />

Hong Kong Egg Tarts<br />

If I need to recommend you the most<br />

popular street food in the Fragrant<br />

Harbor, then egg tart must be the<br />

answer. The most famed egg tarts<br />

belong to Taieong Bakery system,<br />

which features outlets around Hong<br />

Kong. Another address for you to<br />

enjoy this cuisine is the bakery<br />

located near Star Ferry, outside the<br />

gate on Tsim Sha Tsui side. For only<br />

8HKD/unit, you will have a chance<br />

to savor these hot and aromatic<br />

egg tarts. The taste of egg tart<br />

likes a harmonious melody of egg,<br />

cheese and flour. On tasting the first<br />

piece of the cake, you will feel the<br />

flavorsome sparkling yellow filling<br />

melting in your mouth.<br />

WITHOUT THE CHANCE TO EXPERIENCE HONG KONG WITH MY CLOSE FRIEND, I WOULD HAVE<br />

THOUGHT THAT IT WAS JUST A GLITZY AND EXTRAVAGANT CITY, UNSUITABLE FOR THOSE<br />

WHO LOVE SIMPLE AND ROMANTIC THINGS LIKE ME. INSTEAD, THIS “FRAGRANT HARBOR” IS A<br />

BLEND OF MODERN AND TRADITIONAL BEAUTY WITH CLASSICAL FEATURES.<br />

Bustling and serene<br />

Hong Kong is known as “the city<br />

that never sleeps”. In the center<br />

of Mongkok, Tsim Sha Tsui<br />

and Causeway, even at 12am or<br />

later, stores welcome guests with<br />

colorful, sparkling lights and the<br />

streets are still full of people,<br />

especially on weekends. The<br />

famous Lan Kwai Fong street only<br />

gets more bustling after 9pm.<br />

The vibrant beauty of Hong<br />

Kong is not evoked by annoying<br />

honking or the boisterous sounds<br />

of people chatting but by the<br />

exciting atmosphere in every small<br />

corner, the rushing footsteps and<br />

the jingling sounds whenever<br />

traffic lights turn green. Amateur<br />

bands perform on the streets<br />

every weekend night. Middleaged<br />

artists create their simple<br />

stage with microphones, speakers<br />

and guitars, and then freely sing<br />

their favorite songs from modern<br />

music to old melodies which<br />

remind listeners of Hong Kong<br />

in old times. Younger people go<br />

further; they usually stand on<br />

walking bridges and play music<br />

from hiphop, beatbox to jazz in a<br />

relaxing manner among passersby.<br />

Perhaps, because of “staying up<br />

late” with its effervescent nightlife,<br />

Hong Kong is a drowsy city,<br />

getting up late in the morning. At<br />

7am, when sunlight is covering<br />

all of the streets, in Mongkok,<br />

where the life was bustling last<br />

night, every store is sleeping, just<br />

some old men sit on desks, silently<br />

watching deserted roads.<br />

Leave the modern urban places<br />

and visit remote areas of Hong<br />

Kong such as Stanley Bay or Tai<br />

O fishing village, where you will<br />

immediately realize the serene<br />

traditional beauty of this fragrant<br />

harbor. Without the tinkling lines<br />

at crossroads and rumbling car<br />

engines, Hong Kong immerses<br />

itself in a gentle and quite<br />

atmosphere. While Stanley Bay<br />

boasts its silence and gorgeous<br />

appearance with luxurious<br />

apartment buildings and beautiful<br />

garden houses, Tai O fishing<br />

village just appears pensively with<br />

rustic houses overlooking the sea.<br />

Sunlight fulfils every<br />

street corner<br />

During our time exploring the<br />

pearl of Asia, we always wonder<br />

whether the designer of Hong<br />

Kong was a painter who adorned<br />

every street with lovely colors.<br />

Even the subway stations have<br />

their own jacket of countless colors<br />

to differentiate themselves from<br />

others.<br />

Hong Kong is the city where<br />

modern European styles meet<br />

traditional values. It’s so easy to<br />

find contrasting images created<br />

by putting traditional drug stores<br />

selling oriental herbs, small<br />

restaurants selling dumplings<br />

134<br />

<strong>TRAVELLIVE</strong>

and rice gruel near luxurious shopping centers,<br />

electronics stores and the chains of McDonalds<br />

or KFC. Among tall buildings, there are some<br />

small yards in the shade of trees and flowers.<br />

We call them “happy corners of Hong Kong”<br />

because it’s not easy to take small spaces like<br />

these out of Hong Kong - one of the most<br />

densely populated city in the world. These<br />

“happy corners” are not only the playground<br />

of children but also favorite places of officers<br />

working in nearby buildings.<br />

It will be a shortcoming if you evaluate the<br />

bustling and beautiful Hong Kong just by stores<br />

along streets. When wandering around Tsim<br />

Sha Tsui, I’m mesmerized from the very first<br />

moment. Behind a small, simple door and<br />

above a narrow staircase is the new world of<br />

numerous bookstores, gyms and clothing shops.<br />

All of them seem to be obscured by countless<br />

signboards on the first floor.<br />

Cold faces and warm hearts<br />

While Hong Kong seems to be haughty and<br />

glacial, it welcomes us with its most sincere<br />

sentiments. Without talking, Hong Kong’s<br />

inhabitants just pass by me quickly as they<br />

are hurried to go to subway stations, to their<br />

offices or just busy with their smart phone.<br />

However, when we are struggling to find to<br />

way back to the hostel and so confused with the<br />

“incomprehensible” way locals number houses,<br />

we are supported by many friendly passers. On<br />

that hot afternoon, they willingly stop to help us<br />

use Google Maps, and try to show us the way in<br />

any languages that they can use, from English,<br />

Chinese and Cantonese to ... body language.<br />

Once we walk through Soho and see locals<br />

building a high shed with a multitude of eyecatching<br />

votive paper, my friend cautiously asks<br />

them what they are doing. Then, these people<br />

enthusiastically share that they are celebrating<br />

the traditional Vu Lan festival.<br />

During 8 days in Hong Kong, I chose a<br />

homestay hostel to sleep at night. Although<br />

the room is very small, it really gives us an<br />

opportunity to witness the hard lives of labor<br />

While Hong<br />

Kong seems<br />

to be haughty<br />

and glacial,<br />

it welcomes<br />

us with its<br />

most sincere<br />

sentiments.<br />

people in the bustling and<br />

gorgeous Hong Kong. Our<br />

host, a middle-aged man, is<br />

very kind. Owning a chain of<br />

hostel in AirBnb style, he is not<br />

rich. He and his wife live in a<br />

tiny room on the 9 th floor of<br />

an old building. Their children<br />

have to live in a five -square meter room without<br />

windows. There is only enough space for a bunk<br />

bed, a table and a small cabinet.<br />

When it comes to Hong Kong, people will think<br />

of the wealthy lifestyle, a modern city with<br />

commercial centers springing up everywhere.<br />

But for me, Hong Kong is simple like a girl. She<br />

looks trendy, yet there are some tranquil silences<br />

deep in her soul.<br />
