A friend of yours has written to you, asking for some advice. He wants to visit your country for three weeks this summer and would like to know which places to visit, where to stay, what sights to see, and what clothes to bring. Write to him, giving as many suggestions as you can and mentioning any national customs that may seem strange to him.
Dear Peter,
I'm excited to hear that you're planning a visit to our country this summer! There are so many wonderful places to see here, so I'll do my best to give you some suggestions on where to go and what to see.
Firstly, I recommend visiting our capital city. It's a bustling metropolis with lots of cultural attractions, such as museums, galleries, and theaters. There are also plenty of great restaurants and bars in the city, so you won't be short on options for food and drink.
Outside of the city, there are some beautiful coastal towns that are worth visiting. If you're feeling adventurous, you could also take a trip up to the Everest for some hiking and mountain biking.
As for where to stay, there are many options depending on your budget and preferred type of accommodation. If you're looking for luxury, there are some fantastic hotels in the city and along the coast. However, if you're on a budget, there are also plenty of hostels and guesthouses that offer affordable accommodation. Just be sure to book well in advance, especially in the more popular tourist destinations.
In terms of clothing, it can get quite hot and humid in the summer months, so I recommend bringing lightweight and breathable clothing. It's also a good idea to bring some comfortable walking shoes, as there will be plenty of sightseeing to do. Lastly, it's worth noting that in some parts of the country, it's customary to dress quite conservatively, especially when visiting religious sites. It's always a good idea to check ahead of time to see if there are any dress codes in place.
I hope this advice helps you plan your trip! If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out.
Best regards,
Linh
Dịch: Peter thân mến,
Tôi rất vui khi biết rằng bạn đang lên kế hoạch đến thăm đất nước của chúng tôi vào mùa hè này! Có rất nhiều địa điểm tuyệt vời để tham quan ở đây, vì vậy tôi sẽ cố gắng hết sức để cung cấp cho bạn một số gợi ý về nơi nên đi và những gì nên xem.
Đầu tiên, tôi khuyên bạn nên đến thăm thành phố thủ đô của chúng tôi. Đó là một đô thị nhộn nhịp với nhiều điểm tham quan văn hóa, chẳng hạn như bảo tàng, phòng trưng bày và nhà hát. Ngoài ra còn có rất nhiều nhà hàng và quán bar tuyệt vời trong thành phố, vì vậy bạn sẽ không thiếu các lựa chọn về đồ ăn thức uống.
Bên ngoài thành phố, có một số thị trấn ven biển xinh đẹp đáng để ghé thăm. Nếu thích phiêu lưu, bạn cũng có thể thực hiện một chuyến đi lên đỉnh Everest để đi bộ đường dài và đạp xe leo núi.
Đối với nơi ở, có nhiều lựa chọn tùy thuộc vào ngân sách của bạn và loại chỗ ở ưa thích. Nếu bạn đang tìm kiếm sự sang trọng, có một số khách sạn tuyệt vời trong thành phố và dọc theo bờ biển. Tuy nhiên, nếu bạn có ngân sách tiết kiệm, cũng có rất nhiều ký túc xá và nhà nghỉ cung cấp chỗ ở giá cả phải chăng. Chỉ cần đảm bảo đặt chỗ trước, đặc biệt là ở các điểm du lịch nổi tiếng hơn.
Về quần áo, thời tiết có thể khá nóng và ẩm trong những tháng mùa hè, vì vậy tôi khuyên bạn nên mang theo quần áo nhẹ và thoáng khí. Bạn cũng nên mang theo một đôi giày đi bộ thoải mái vì sẽ có rất nhiều hoạt động tham quan. Cuối cùng, điều đáng chú ý là ở một số vùng của đất nước, người ta thường ăn mặc khá kín đáo, đặc biệt là khi đến thăm các địa điểm tôn giáo. Bạn nên kiểm tra trước xem có quy định nào về trang phục hay không.
Tôi hy vọng lời khuyên này sẽ giúp bạn lên kế hoạch cho chuyến đi của mình! Nếu bạn có bất kỳ câu hỏi nào khác, vui lòng liên hệ.
Trân trọng,
Linh

After only 50 minutes flying from Ho Chi Minh City, you will set foot on the tropical paradise of Vietnam and the world: Phu Quoc Island.
The island has a roughly triangular shape with a north-south length of 50km and a west-east width of 25km. A great part of the terrain is filled with beautiful sandy beaches, but there is a mountainous region with 99 peaks, among which the Peak of Chua Mountain is the tallest one at 603 meters. Due to Phu Quoc’s location in the Gulf of Thailand, its climate is sub-equatorial with temperate weather all year round, making trips to Phu Quoc possible any time of the year. However, the best time to travel to this island is during the dry season, from November until March, when the sky is blue and clear and the rains are away.
Phu Quoc is most famous for its cuisines and a natural wonderful coastline. The most famous food of Phu Quoc is fish sauce, which has become quite popular all over Vietnam and the world. Besides, another thing worth trying there is the spicy yet interesting black pepper. However, the factor that will definitely intrigue you to visit Phu Quoc is its untouched coastline featuring several heavenly beaches. They have yet to be explored to their full ability, but this fact might be actually positive as it gives the shores a romantic beauty that you can find nowhere else in the world.

MY VILLAGE
I live in a village by Mekong River. Every day, like most of my friends, I walk to school. It is three kilometres away. After class, I often help my mother to collect water from the riverand feed the chickens. At the weekend, the villagers often gather at the community hall where there is a TV. The adults watch TV, but more often they talk about their farm workand exchange news. The children run around, playing games and shouting merrily. Laughter is heard everywhere. My father sometimes takes me to the market town nearby where he sells our home productslike vegetables, fruits, eggs… He then buys me an ice cream and lets me take a ride on theelectric train in the town square. I love those trips. On starry nights, we children lie on the grass, looking at the sky and daring each other to find the Milky Way. We dream of faraway places.

We couldn't have managed without my father's money.
