Typical fillings include marinated pork, pate, fresh chilli, pickled vegetables and salad leaves but there are many variations of this classic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2896 size-full lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"vietnam itinerary 10 days\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-1170x878.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-585x439.jpg 585w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 2560px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 2560\/1920;\" \/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-2896 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"vietnam itinerary 10 days\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1920\" srcset=\"https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-2048x1536.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-1170x878.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/s3-cdn.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/05231827\/van-thanh-E1MbvlMJfUc-unsplash-1-585x439.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/><\/noscript><\/b><\/h3>\n<h3><b>#3 Banh Xeo (pronounced \u2018<\/b><b><i>ban xay-ow<\/i><\/b><b>\u2019)<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the most famous street foods, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">banh xeo<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is a Vietnamese savoury pancake made from rice flour, coconut milk and turmeric.

However, it is always wise to be aware of your surroundings as pickpocketing, common scams and petty theft still happens.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Vietnam, you should drink bottled or filtered water instead of tap water. The warning about ice in Asian countries has become less of a concern to travellers in the last decade as most establishments, even street food vendors, use filtered ice in their drinks. However, if you want to be extra careful, you should avoid ice in your drinks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A huge part of travelling through Vietnam is indulging in the incredible street food which can be found on every corner in Vietnam. Street food should be embraced and enjoyed on any 10-day Vietnam trip, but be mindful stalls which aren\u2019t busy as the food may have been sitting out for longer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Roads work differently in Vietnam; a lack of official road rules means locals often drive in their unique way &#8211; the wrong way on one-way streets, highways and more. However, this unique way works in Vietnam and should, therefore, be respected. Be careful when crossing the road as traffic may come from any direction. The traffic flow will often not stop to allow you to cross, so it is best to cross the road slowly and let the bikes go around you.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is also wise to keep your bag close to you with your hand over it and make sure not to cross the road with your phone in your hand to avoid motorbike thieves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Do You Need Vaccinations To Visit Vietnam?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When planning your Vietnam 10-day itinerary, you must research what vaccinations -if any- you will need for your trip. Whether certain vaccines are required to enter a country, may depend on where you have been recently or where you\u2019re coming from.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Generally, there aren\u2019t any vaccines that you need for Vietnam.

Having lived in Southeast Asia between Vietnam and Bali for three years, I'm now keeping toasty with a cuppa in a little English town planning future adventures for which I have constant inspiration. Offline, there's nothing I enjoy more than long cycle rides, fueling the foodie in me and seeking out new spots - preferably all at the same time. Find me on LinkedIn or Instagram and keep an eye out for travel inspiration here!","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/gracehomer1\/"],"url":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/author\/grace\/"}]}},"yoast_meta":{"yoast_wpseo_title":"","yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"","yoast_wpseo_canonical":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2890"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2890"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2890\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9008,"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2890\/revisions\/9008"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2892"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2890"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2890"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.designerjourneys.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2890"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
