Hanoi - Hue - Danang - Saigon-Train travel in Vietnam

Why trains are the best way to get around Vietnam...?

flights from Hanoi to Danang-Danang sea
 
 You'd be crazy not to.  Vietnam's air-conditioned trains are safe, comfortable & inexpensive, the ideal way for independent travellers to get around and see Vietnam at ground level.  The train journeys are an experience in themselves, and become an integral part of your visit to Vietnam.  You might even meet some Vietnamese people.  Inexperienced travellers often mistakenly think they'll save time by using internal flights - in fact, an overnight train ride from Hanoi to Hue or Hanoi to Danang  is not only far more of an experience (and cheaper) than a flight, the train actually saves time compared to flying, because the train leaves Hanoi city centre in the evening and arrives in Hué city centre next morning.  Flying takes 4 or 5 hours out of your sightseeing day in getting to a remote airport, checking in, taking the flight itself, collecting your bags and getting back into the city centre.  And the sleeper trains saves a hotel bill, too.  And what's the rush anyway?

Over the last decade the Hanoi-Saigon train service has been steadily improving and a whole range of daily air-conditioned trains now link Hanoi, Hue, Danang, Nha Trang & Ho Chi Minh Here are the principal trains, all running daily. There are additional trains at peak times, such as the Tet holiday period.

 The view from the train...
You'll see some amazing scenery from the train between Hanoi and Saigon. Easily the best section is between Hue and Danang over the Hai Van Pass, where the train runs along the coast past bays and islands and through the hills. The train travels at low speed up the fierce gradients, with an assisting locomotive at the rear and people sitting on the roof!

Earlier the carrier was expected to join hands with Malaysian-based low-cost airline in a joint venture to set up the budget carrier VietJet AirAsia, but the two parties failed to reach an agreement two months ago.

Vo Huy Cuong, head of the aviation department of the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAAV), said VietJet Air had leased three Airbus A320 aircrafts from a foreign airline and the first of them was expected to arrive in Vietnam this month.

He was quoted by the Saigon Times Online as saying that the airline was licensed to bring the aircrafts to Vietnam before getting the air operator's certificate from CAAV.

Hanoi to Hue- do you think about Hanoi?

I like Hanoi-Hue. To day i'll talk about Hanoi in the autumn
Hanoi in the autumn
An ancient Hanoi, an peaceful Hanoi becomes romantic within the first sudden summer rain along with rainy yellow leaf as the hand of beautiful girls are hiding in green leaf to sprinkle the yellow leaf on the road. This season does not make Hanoi become extraordinary city with a little sadness and a little void in someone’s heart.
Hanoi in the autumn
Additionally, beauty of charming Hanoi was created by combination between Vietnamese traditional architecture and France architecture. Visitting Hanoi is a good opportunity for visitor to enjoy this architecture space. France’s culture has strongly influenced on Vietnam’s culture, especially on Vietnamese architecture at the beginning of twenty century. Beside small houses with three room is only appropriate for Vietnamese family, we can see the streets with private villa which was built by the first Frenches who came this land in the last century.
 
Hanoi in VietNam
Moreover, Hanoi is an interesting topic for so many musicians, poets, and both professional and amateur photographers. There have been many songs, poet, and pictures which was composed or produced for Hanoi. Hanoi created strong vitality for these songs, poets, and pictures or they helped Hanoi become more lively and full of vitality. Maybe let visitors and members of this blog answer this question after
listening to some Hanoi songs.

Nowaday, Hanoi develops so quickly with modern construction, and this city becomes more cramped because many person come to the city from other provinces to live and work in here. They have made Hanoi become uncomfortale place. Some of them bring bad behaviours and lifestyle to this city. Some these pesons want to live and work in Hanoi but alway speak ill of it. If Hanoi is so bad in their thinking, why they still want and dream to stay at this city. Maybe they should go back their native place because because their native place need them to promote development of that land. When I studied in Thaland, I met some Vietnamese studnents who alway talk that they do not want to live in Hanoi due to pollution, trafic jam, so on..However, I know that they still want to live in Hanoi whenever they have opportunity.
This is an example about talking ill of this kind of person.
Ngắm mặt Hồ Gươm bỗng ngỡ ngàng,
Giật mình chỉ thấy nước mênh mang
Trơ trọi tháp Rùa loi thoi nổi
Bơ vơ đền Ngọc lá cây vàng..
Người phố co ro ngơ ngẩn lội
Xe sang ậm ạch nước trôi ngang
Cửa hiệu nhấp nhô người tát nước
Chợ búa buồn thiu chẳng có hàng
Câu cá dăm anh cần tua tủa
Dắt xe ba chị bước dạng hang (dạng háng)
Cửa sắt cửa lim giờ đóng chặt
Cống gang cống đá cố mở toang.
Hà Nội bây giờ thành Hà lội...
Ngập thêm chút nữa... tớ bán thang
"How do you think about this kind of person who alway talk that not want to live in Hanoi but they will work and live in Hanoi whenever they can"
