The weather might be unfortunate, but what’s more unfortunate is a constant stream of chemicals and waste particles from coal, cars, industries and agriculture. Stuff usually, fortunately, blown away.

Air quality index map of Germany with lots of yellow and red indicators especially in the northern half of the country; earlier during the day, it was south-bound, too. Weather inversion is to be blamed, or is it?

After a 5 minute walk entering the next level. #Saigon #District1 #HCMC #BuiVienWalkingStreet #Backpacking

Two cans of beer are held in front of a vibrant, illuminated street scene at night, filled with colorful lights and crowds. The background features various signs and storefronts, creating a lively atmosphere.

The image features a large puppet resembling a traditional Chinese figure dressed in vibrant red garments with gold accents. The puppet stands in a lively venue illuminated by colorful neon lights. There are tables and chairs in the background, with some patrons visible.

Letzte Nacht in #Saigon in der #BuiVienWalkingStreet #HCMC #District1. Darauf ein kühles Getränk! #Vietnam #Backpacking
Morgen #Kambodscha, #PhmonPenh. Und Nachtbus nach #Mondulkiri.

Eine Hand hält eine Dose Bia Saigon Export Premium vor einem nächtlichen Stadthintergrund mit bunten Lichtern und Gebäuden.

Eine lebendige Straßenszene in der Stadt bei Nacht, mit beleuchteten Schaufenstern und Dekorationen. Gebäude mit verschiedenen Schildern sind sichtbar, zusammen mit bunten Laternen, die an Bäumen hängen. Man kann Menschen sehen, die die Straße entlang laufen und eine lebhafte Atmosphäre schaffen.

Ein hell beleuchtetes Schild mit der Aufschrift "THE VIEW" ist auf einem Gebäude montiert, das von Grün umgeben ist. Das Foto wird nachts aufgenommen und zeigt einen dunklen Himmel mit den beleuchteten Buchstaben, die prominent dargestellt sind.

Possibly, but probably not THAT particular stall!! Still, the food is so universally good and reasonably-priced at all of them! Living in #HCMC for several years, I often visited #Singapore and the hawker stalls were SUCH a treat! I rarely ate in restaurants with a/c and doors.

#Saigon vibes. #streetphotography

I’ve been to a lovely #sts conference in #HCMC (more on this elsewhere).

The south of #vietnam is a somewhat different place. The first random chat in town was about business (am I with Intel, em??), hitting one stereotype right on the head. But there’s more.

Early morning shot from typical Vietnamese buildings stacked on top of each other. A washed off, yellowish concrete block is illuminated by the sun. Clothes are drying outside

Photograph form the inside of Saigon's most famous markets, where you can buy lots of different crafts, food (and Chinese imports). Sort of colonial architecture, yellowish, and there's a guy running around with two phở. No smoking sign on top

Photograph into a newly built shop. Lots of pols. Construction is going on, a worker cuts metal, spraying sparks. Another worker watched. Nice flooring.

@gparenti @fembot Your photo made me think of this one I took there in 2013. I was most interested in the sign above the door, but the locked gate forced me into a different, and probably better, framing of the shot.

More photos from that trip here: https://bl.ag/painted-signs-in-vietnam/

And a contemporary practitioner from /HCMC/Saigon here: https://bl.ag/saigon/

Painted sign mounted above a double door set within walls of turquoise. This all sits behind a metal gate in a scene of graceful decay.

#Finance in #Vietnam:

#HCMC "holds more than 20% of the nation’s banking assets and over 50% of the stock market capitalization. With its allure for foreign direct investment, Ho Chi Minh City attracted over 40% of the total FDI inflows to Vietnam in 2022."

#Hanoi "accounts for over 15% of the nation’s total banking assets and more than 30% of the stock market capitalization."

Hammered out some great progress regarding a mixed #business and #tourism trip to #BinhDuong province, north of #HCMC (formerly known as Saigon) in March.
First trip ever to #Vietnam for me, seven appointments at factories within three days, then some days off to discover what HCMC has on offer and maybe get to a nice beach as well. Bai Dam Trau on Con Dao island is in our crosshairs.
And yes: with a delay of 3mths I get to celebrate my 50th birthday somewhere warm, yay!

I'm really surprised that a kind couple gave us a pair of tickets for the "War Remnants Museum" in front of the gate. It's just 40,000 VND(240 JPY) per person but I'm pleased with the kindness. #Vietnam #hcmc
