Male Female
If you are interested in Vietnam's tourist attractions, you must have heard about Hanoi. Besides having thousands of years of history, Hanoi is one of the most populous and expensive cities in Vietnam. A year ago, I had the opportunity to visit for a short trip, and I really noticed that this city has changed a lot. Now, it's quite difficult to buy a house in this city. The cost of a house here is very high. Furthermore, the goods in Hanoi are more expensive than in other places due to the prestige of the stores and the quality of the service. As a result, the prices need to be increased to cover these expenses. For example, in a market, it cost me nearly 200 Vietnamese dong to buy a dress, but the price of the same dress would be doubled if it is sold in Hanoi. Besides that, Hanoi is also one of the most populated and polluted cities in Vietnam because of its pollution. Hanoi has many traffic jams; when I was drinking coffee and chatting with my friends on the street, we were surprised by the loud noise and smoke from the vehicles. Traffic congestion is one of the major contributors to both air and noise pollution. This trend poses a dangerous threat to the city and people's health. Therefore, although Hanoi is a good place to find a job, I would choose another city where the environment is cleaner and the cost of living is lower to protect my health and save money.
