An Giang province is famous for agrigulture. (further information can be obtained here(1) and here (2)). Its fruits and crops are abundant here. Vegetables here are sold in a bunch for only RM0.50. Really cheap.
This is a persimmon . It looks like a tomato but it doesn't taste like one. It is sweet . the skin is hard, and the inside of the fruit is dividedinto 2 layers. the outer layer is really soft, as soft as jelly, while the inner layer is hard. Once you bite onto the seed, the inner layer.. you will always yearn for another bite. In M'sia, we always get the hard, orange version. the exact opposite.
This is another fruit which can only be found in Vietnam. ItsVietnamese name is 'Ve She' (Breast Milk). According to Quynh, this fruit has a legend to it. Once upon a time, there was a little boy who was playing in his house. one day, he got really bored, so he decided to venture outside the compounds of his house. His mother searched for him everywhere within the compounds and din't know that he had ventured out, but failed to find him. Finally, she died and turned into a tree.After a long time, they boy came back,searching for his mother.Tired, he laid under the tree to rest and the fruit just dropped down onto his knees. When he opened it, it was just like his mother's milk.
In Vietnam, at any cafe, wherever you go, each time you order a drink, another tea pot will always be present on the table to enable you to refill your cup after you've finished your drink.
The night scene in An Giang province i s just beautiful! Even the church is lighted up the in the night!(***interesting note: the traffic light's stop sign is also a symbol of cross)
(***and the traffic light's green sign has an animation of a truck with its wheels rolling)
The picture below... is another common sight in An Giang province. rivers, boats and houses along the river. one thing that amazes me most is the length and width of these rivers! woah!!! They are super long and super wide!
