Travel guide to Myanmar and Vietnam

Both Myanmar and Vietnam are very typical Southeast Asian countries, but Vietnam is deeply influenced by Chinese civilization, while Myanmar is greatly influenced by Indian culture. The cultures of these two countries are very different, but they are both good tourist destinations. Let's share with you a detailed strategy.

Myanmar (Southeast Asian countries)

Climate:

The best travel time is 65438+February to February of the following year. This period is the dry season in Myanmar. There is little rain, and the temperature is 17-3 1 degree. It is a little cold in the morning and evening, and it will be hot at noon, but it will be very cold as long as it is in the shade. The direct ultraviolet rays of the sun are very strong.

Visa and customs clearance:

1. Sticker visa can be handled at Myanmar embassy in China (Beijing or Myanmar consulate in Kunming, or travel agency, or Taobao agent), and the visa fee varies according to the handling method. The visa period is usually seven days. Secondly, you can apply for an e-visa yourself online, and the e-visa takes three days. The cost is much cheaper than the sticker. In addition, Myanmar has opened the landing visa to tourists from China. Stickers and electronic labels are valid for 90 days and can stay for 28 days. If you need an extension, you must go through the formalities at the immigration office.

2. Mantuole International Airport was put into use, and tourist visas were cleared quickly. It usually takes 2-3 minutes to enter the country. There is no need to fill in the entry and exit cards and customs cards. Customs inspection can safely scan luggage.

Currency:

1 RMB to 2 15 kyats, 1 USD to 1500 kyats. When you travel to Myanmar, you must exchange US dollars in domestic banks. There is a blue ribbon in the middle of the new US dollar, otherwise it may be accepted. Secondly, the dollar you carry must not be folded, damaged or defiled, otherwise it will be rejected in Myanmar.

Myanmar's entry and exit policy: To travel to Myanmar, the Myanmar government implements the policy of air entry and exit, land entry and land exit, that is, aircraft entry and exit, and cars entry and exit. However, car access must be organized by travel agencies, and individuals are not allowed to enter and leave.

Materials preparation: passport, valid visa, appropriate amount of cash, round-trip air ticket, travel list of hotels (hostels) in Myanmar (printed for spot check.

Four scenic spots in Myanmar: ancient kingdom and old capital, Mandalay, Thousand Buddhas and pagans, Mosaic Lake and Yangon.

Transportation: You can take buses and planes between the four scenic spots, but it is not recommended to take the train, which is not generally slow. In the scenic area, you can rent a car, motorcycle and battery car (electric bicycle, bicycle, bagan and carriage). Double row seats (two cars.

Myanmar is an agricultural country, and Hinayana Buddhism is the national religion of Myanmar. Slippers must be worn when entering the temple. Because there are too many times to enter the temple every day, wearing flip-flops is the first choice. You can't wear shorts, skirts or strapless shirts when you enter the temple.

Accommodation: Please book a hotel for free travel. Since tourism revenue is one of the important fees charged by the Myanmar government, your reservation room includes tourism tax and management fee. Compared with domestic hotels, if you pay the same money, the room area in Myanmar will be smaller and the facilities will be simpler. You must adapt and not complain, but the room must be clean, and the customer service will try its best to help you.

Myanmar is very safe. The people are hardworking, kind, simple, kind and gentle, and they are also very kind to the people of China. Traveling to Myanmar is very convenient, primitive and beautiful. But I don't know why, so far, few China people travel to Myanmar (including tour groups), and most of them are European and American tourists.

Viet Nam

1. visa: you must do it well in China. It is very convenient to get a visa in China. Just take a photo on the first page of your passport. Landing visa is not recommended. You have to fill in complicated forms temporarily and give a hint.

2. Take a taxi from a regular taxi company, and look for MailinhGroup (08.38 or HoangLongGroup printed on the car body) dozens of meters to the left of the airport exit. Where the staff will ask where to go, you can show them the name and address of the hotel, and then they will hand over a complaint business card of the taxi company with the license plate number on it, telling them that the car is charged by the meter. Black cars are easy to be blackmailed, and because we have no concept of money for the first time abroad, we often can't count the money for a long time, and black car drivers will rob you of your money!

Third, communication: open international roaming or buy Vietnamese cards in advance to keep communication smooth.

4. Exchange rate: 1 RMB = 3,000 VND. Divide the face value of Vietnamese dong by 3, which is the value of RMB.

Note: Vietnam is full of swindlers who shine shoes. They should ask you for money after polishing. In short, don't talk to people who are too enthusiastic.

Seven, don't look down at the phone when walking, especially single women. There are many motorcycle robberies in Vietnam.

8. Folklore: temples, churches, palaces and high-end entertainment places in Vietnam are recognized as formal occasions. When entering, you should wear dignified and tidy clothes. You shouldn't be topless, wearing slippers, shorts, mini skirts, sleeveless tops or other inappropriate clothes. When walking in the street, you should pay attention to avoid the sacrificial supplies placed on the street. You shouldn't trample on Vietnamese, they are very sensitive to the number 3. When taking pictures of scenic spots, don't take pictures with three people.

Customs: Only 200 cigarettes and 500 ml of wine can be brought into Vietnam Customs. China citizens do not need to fill in entry and exit cards, but they need to check the return tickets. Chinese mainland Customs strictly controls the bird's nest carried by inbound passengers, and it is not recommended to buy it!

X. Public security: The political situation in Vietnam is generally stable and the public security situation is good. However, there are also some thefts, and even some motorcycles rob bags. Most of the victims were single women. It is recommended to accompany you freely.

Finally, provide a useful phone number. The assistance hotline of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China is +86 10 12308. If you encounter difficulties, you can contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for assistance as soon as possible.
