In the past, traveling in Vietnam was much simpler and slower than it is today. Most people traveled by bicycles, motorbikes, or buses, and long trips by car or train took a lot of time. For example, people would travel by bus to go from one city to another, and there were not many options for long-distance travel. Nowadays, things have changed a lot. There are more ways to travel, and it's much faster. We now have airplanes, high-speed trains, and comfortable buses that make it easier to visit different places in Vietnam. For example, you can take a flight from Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City in just two hours. This is very convenient, especially for tourists who want to see as much as possible in a short time.
When people travel in Vietnam now, they often visit famous places like Ha Long Bay, the ancient town of Hoi An, and beaches in Da Nang. In the past, travel was mainly for visiting family or for business, but now more people travel just for fun and to see beautiful places.
These changes in travel have been very positive. They allow Vietnamese people to explore their own country more easily, and they make it easier for tourists to come and enjoy Vietnam's beautiful landscapes and rich culture.
