Impressed with many delicious dishes

Arriving at Hai Phong station, Maysaa felt the familiar atmosphere, because she loved this city and had many memories here. During her time studying at university in Quang Ninh, the girl born in 2001 went to Hai Phong to film a video about her culinary journey.

"Hai Phong is a dynamic and bustling port city but not too crowded. I like the people here because they are open-minded and the cuisine is diverse and rich," Maysaa said.

Arriving at the port city on a special occasion, the Laotian girl was impressed by the red flag with yellow star flying everywhere. People were excited to organize cultural and artistic activities.

Joining the crowd in Hai Phong to watch the fireworks, Maysaa was delighted by the enthusiasm of the local people. Recognizing the famous girl on social media, the locals handed Maysaa a flag, everyone sang amidst laughter and lively music.

"I no longer think of myself as a tourist, but as part of a big family enjoying that happy moment," she shared.

In the port city, Maysaa was welcomed by Meritorious Artist Quang Thang's family and invited to dinner with rustic dishes such as roast pork, crab soup, pickled vegetables...

During that meal, the male artist introduced the beauty of Hai Phong. In particular, Maysaa was surprised to know that on May 13 - the anniversary of Hai Phong Liberation Day - families and neighborhoods all organized very lavish meals to create a happy atmosphere and strengthen solidarity.

"The atmosphere celebrating Hai Phong Liberation Day was very bustling, I felt like everyone was preparing to celebrate Tet," Maysaa confided.

The second time returning to the Red Flamboyant City, the Laotian girl expressed her special love for the cuisine here. Many dishes are made from fresh seafood, with unique flavors that she will never forget such as: Bean sprouts, crab rice noodles, crab spring rolls, jellyfish salad...

"People here love to eat bread. They have many ways to make this dish, but my favorite is banh mi canh. The more you eat, the more addicted you become," Maysaa confided.

Due to her studies, Maysaa has now returned to Hanoi and will make another appointment with Hai Phong to explore the city, contributing to spreading the image of the culture, cuisine and people here.
