Someone has asked on an online travel forum on what he have to do to see the real Vietnam. Some participants have pointed him to cities the North, somes directed hime to regions in the South. To me, the real Vietnam is what you are experiencing now. Maybe what the original forum poster wants to look for is a certain charms in the past. But for all the bad, the good, the beauty, the ugly experiences that one will have in Vietnam, all of it, IS the REAL Vietnam.
The motocycle is the official mode of transportation in Vietnam. It is the life blood of the economy. Taken away the motorbike from a person is like cutting off his legs. In Saigon alone, there is almost 3 millions of them.
