Không ngờ là ở miền tây lại có 1 thành phố mà vắng tanh như vậy luôn. Có thể đường sá chưa thuận lợi lắm để Hậu Giang hút khách du lịch. Cảnh flycam đoạn đường xuyên giữa những cánh đồng lúa đẹp thực sự, với cả nhà hàng tre nữa. Cảm ơn 2 bạn về những thước phim tuyệt đẹp. Chúc hai bạn có những trãi nghiệm tuyệt với sắp tới. Merry Christmas!!
David is young, perhaps you don't know what a rural area like HauGiang or the rest of rural Vietnam was like 50 yrs ago. In "Apocalypse Now," the village portrayed in the famed scene of US cavalry (with Ride of The Valkyries in the background), was a typical representative. All were dirt roads, no asphalt. Bridges were mostly of the bamboo "monkey bridge" type. People crossed the water with canoes. So, at 8:34, the scene of canals/waterways with concrete revetments, paved roads, and bridges, even piers and recreational area is impressive. Vietnam economy didn't turn around until mid 2000's, and HG is supposed to be a rich province (rice exporter), so it looks like all those infrastructure developments were within the last 5 yrs. At 8:38 the scene of the storefront cafe + clean building with French balconies in the background can be taken as somewhere in a small town of a developed country. 9:03 "Retirement city"?? No Mady, people there aren't retirees, they work very hard, toiling on those beautiful lush rice fields seen in your drone shots. They work hard and are content with their simple, mentally healthy, and holistic way of life that they don't need any artificial rush of adrenaline or excitement of the wild nightlife like Bui Vien street. Like the Iowa or Arkansas or Idaho farmers, they just go home and sleep after a long day of work. 10:06 - 10:21 Tu Sang Bamboo Garden is amazing. It's the best anecdotal evidence that HG is indeed wealthier. The restaurant is unbelievably artistic and avant-garde, showing that people start to have a middle-income taste. I am sure you have seen many other parts of Vietnam that are still rustically unsophisticated. This Tu Sang Bamboo garden owner must have consulted professional architects and interior decorators. Your drone shots are so beautiful and it is an injustice that you cut them short, for example 2:55 - 3:03 for the sake of video length. Don't worry about the video length. Your videos have very dense quality content, perhaps because you try to keep them short for fear of people's attention span. But don't worry about that, with chapter markers, people can skip and watch what one is most interested in. 3:04 the 7-waterways nexus is actually a well-known tourist attraction.
Hau Giang is indeed a rice producing powerhouse and out of many places we went, it has one of the most stunning rice spectacles, a true representative of what rural Vietnam looks like. Sadly speaking, many of the locals we talked to aren’t fond of their current situations, especially the middle class. There’s so much to it that we couldn’t share in our video as travels are our primary tone. Growing up and spending more than 20 years in this rice-bowl region, I can suggest a revisit to immerse yourself better in the places if a holistic feel is what you’re interested in. I’m not sure if you know but longer videos require months of editing with massive research and tech skills, but RUclips isn’t very supportive of it as these videos usually get bullied and bring the creators long term negative effects. So, we need to keep it short and sweet. Most importantly, we have a specific target audience for our videos whether they want to visit or to know a bit about the places. With how we experience our travels and the just-enough info we reveal about each place, we hope our videos can encourage people to do the same thing when their travel time comes. Granted that everyone’s opinion is different, we love to hear it all so we could tailor our videos to serve the audience better. So, thank you for sharing with us.

I were grew up in Can Tho Hau Giang
Oh really? Nice to know you! Hopefully, the city or province there will be more developed and become a great place for tourists soon!
