Guide To Vietnamese Culture Hà Nội – Hướng Dẫn Văn Hóa Việt Nam – Hà Nội

Hà Nội is a title in the popular book series Guide to Vietnamese Culture. What makes this series unique is the writers’ use of their own firsthand experiences with the people, features, events and places they describe, whether this is grabbing a quick snack at a street stall in Hà Nội or participating in a village festival in Huế. That is also an advantage of a book that draws articles from a magazine in this case the Vietnam Cultural Window – over one based solely on desk research.

As they read a book in the series, both old and new friends of Việt Nam will be able to find stories close to their hearts. Those who have spent considerable time in Việt Nam will find themselves reliving familiar experiences, thoughts and feelings. Those who don’t yet know the country as well will find themselves discovering new perspectives as the writers take them through their stories. Even though some statistics and facts may have been changed by the passage of time, the ambiance and experience are still there for you to enjoy.

Each book in the series can be read on its own or as a companion to the myriad of other books on Việt Nam. The value of the series can be summed up in what was once written by Andreas Pohl, a well-known author on Vietnamese cuisine:

“This Guide to Vietnamese Culture has turned out to be a treasure trove for both old and new friends of this country, its people and its culture, that will undoubtedly enrich the readers knowledge and understanding of Việt Nam’s unique traditions.”
