TravelTranscript
00:00When America invaded Vietnam, they didn't realize that the power and will of the Vietnamese people
00:06was capable of breaking the strongest army in the world.
00:09I immediately initiated a program to end the war and win an honorable peace.
00:14The street behind me is part of the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
00:17The road that America built during its war in Vietnam
00:20and made it look like a dog in a haystack, and it exploded in it.
00:24To the extent that the areas that exploded this road
00:27made it the most exploded areas in all of history.
00:31Despite this, they couldn't get rid of this road
00:34and it was the reason that they lost the Vietnam War in the end.
00:38Come with me on this trip where I will pass through Vietnam from its north to its south
00:43to tell you stories about the Vietnamese people, their history, their culture, their food,
00:48and everything you need to know about them.
00:50Come with us.
00:52Vietnam is considered one of the best countries in the world for tourism.
00:56It is cheap, its people are kind, and it has amazing nature and experiences.
01:00But to get here, they went through many years of war.
01:04Perhaps the most important was the Vietnam War and the American intervention.
01:08The war lasted for 20 years.
01:10They resisted it with fierce resistance
01:12so that in the end they could be independent and united under one flag.
01:16I had a dream for a long time to cross Vietnam from the north to the south.
01:20Finally, the time has come.
01:22It's a very long trip, but I will introduce you to Vietnam's history.
01:27Hey Siri.
01:30Will there be rain today?
01:33It doesn't look like it's going to rain today.
01:38Nice.
01:39Hey.
01:45Hey.
01:48I started my trip from Hanoi, the capital,
01:50and I took a motorbike with me.
01:52I bought this motorbike for $400.
01:54There are many groups on Facebook that sell motorbikes at ridiculous prices.
01:58Some are even less than $200.
02:00So I bought this one. I thought it was a classic.
02:03It's perfect for a trip where we want to talk about history.
02:07This motorbike feels like it's from World War II.
02:12It broke down a thousand times yesterday, but it's not a problem.
02:15This accelerator doesn't work anymore.
02:18There's something inside that's broken or cut.
02:24Come on.
02:25Come on.
02:26Come on.
02:27Come on.
02:28Come on.
02:29Come on.
02:30Come on.
02:31Come on.
02:32Come on.
02:33Come on.
02:34Come on.
02:35Come on.
02:36Come on.
02:37Come on.
02:38Come on.
02:39It's hard.
02:40Thank you.
02:41Bye-bye.
02:44These guys saved my life today.
02:46This is a chain. I don't know how they fixed it, but they tied it.
02:50And we have this jacket. I don't know why they brought it.
02:53I drove for about 7 hours yesterday until I got to this city called Vinh.
02:57And I want to get out of here and continue to the south.
03:01Oh God.
03:02Oh, Karim.
03:03Look.
03:06Seriously, the motorbike is amazing.
03:08It's broken a thousand times, but it's nice.
03:27The motorbike hasn't turned off yet.
03:29And this thing that turns it on is broken.
03:32How does it come back?
03:34Look.
03:35Easy.
03:39What a luck.
03:40Well, this nice guy stopped and is pushing me with his foot from his motorbike.
03:48Come on.
03:51I mean, thank you.
03:52This piece fell.
03:53We found a place to fix the motorbike.
03:56We still can't get out.
04:05Last night, the motorbike broke.
04:07Another thing.
04:08But someone came and helped me in the same way.
04:10It looks like this is their usual way.
04:12He is trying to help me get to a place to fix it.
04:15This one?
04:18Thank you very much.
04:19Bye bye.
04:20Come on.
04:21We found a place to fix the motorbike.
04:25You are the best man.
04:26Thank you very much.
04:29Where is he?
04:30Hello.
04:33No one?
04:35Go, go, go.
04:36Yesterday, I was planning to double the distance I drove.
04:40But I couldn't because of the motorbike's problems.
04:42And today, the same thing is clear.
04:43Oh my God.
04:46The guy who helped me came.
05:03Come on.
05:04Come on.
05:06Peace be upon you.
05:20If I don't buy a long sleeve shirt now,
05:25My skin will melt.
05:27So, I found this place on the way.
05:30Let's see.
05:32It's heavy.
05:34Let's see.
05:39I bought this shirt.
05:41It's clear that it's for the sun and the motorbike.
05:43Because look,
05:44It comes with something to cover your hands.
05:47So that your hands don't get burned.
05:48The sun is very hot.
05:49The temperature is 38 degrees.
05:51Let me try to say thank you.
05:54Come on.
05:56Come on.
05:59It didn't understand me.
06:00My goal in this trip to Vietnam
06:02is to be able to say thank you.
06:04Come on.
06:05Come on.
06:07Come on.
06:09I made a mistake.
06:10I will drive about 1,600 kilometers.
06:15May God help you.
06:33The sun in Vietnam is unbelievable.
06:36Everyone in the street is wearing the same clothes.
06:39And the turtleneck is under the shirt.
06:42So, I decided to do this.
06:43Because the situation is really terrible.
07:02Hello.
07:04Hello.
07:06Water?
07:08Water.
07:09Do you have cold water?
07:11Do you have cold water?
07:13Yes.
07:14Yes?
07:15Okay.
07:17Where is the water?
07:19This water?
07:21Come on.
07:23Come on.
07:25No.
07:26Come on.
07:28Thank you.
07:29Come on.
07:30Thank you.
07:31Come on.
07:32Thank you.
07:33Thank you.
07:35Come on.
07:36I don't know what this is.
07:37It looks like lemon juice.
07:39But the world is hot.
07:41And the people here in this country
07:43don't go out during the day.
07:45Especially in these days.
07:46Because it is very hot.
07:47Most of the shops on the road are closed.
07:51It's not normal.
07:52We have two foreigners here.
07:54They are coming by bicycles.
07:55I don't know how they are able to go out by bicycles.
08:02Mmm.
08:04I don't know what this is exactly.
08:06But it's very juicy.
08:07It doesn't have any gasses.
08:08It's lemon juice.
08:10And it has a juicy taste.
08:11I don't know how they add this.
08:14If anyone comes to Vietnam,
08:15I advise you to try this.
08:17And look, wherever we go,
08:18we have pictures of Ho Chi Minh
08:21and Vietnamese men.
08:24Of course, Ho Chi Minh
08:25has its picture on all Vietnamese banknotes.
08:29All of them.
08:31Let's go.
08:35I saw that she has a juice with sugar.
08:37Can you see it?
08:40So I asked her to make me a cup with ice.
08:44Oh.
08:45Come on.
08:47Come.
08:48Come on.
08:49No, no.
08:50I want to drink it now.
08:51Thank you.
08:52Come on.
08:53Thank you.
08:56Camera.
08:58Thank you.
09:00Give it to me.
09:01Give it to me.
09:03Thank you.
09:04Now, do this.
09:06Goodbye.
09:07Bye-bye.
09:08Oh, we're back on the road.
09:16It's the sixth time that I broke the motorbike.
09:19And all the problems were because
09:21the bags fell.
09:23There's nothing on the motorbike.
09:24I put the bags on it.
09:25When you buy a motorbike in Vietnam,
09:27make sure that there's a place for the bags.
09:29Hello.
09:30Xin chào.
09:31Xin chào.
09:32Xin chào.
09:33How are you?
09:34My name is Mo.
09:38What should I do with the bag?
09:42I don't understand.
09:43All of them are behind the bags.
09:50If they knew how many times I broke the motorbike,
09:52they would tell me to take a shower,
09:54leave the bag in the trash,
09:56and go to the bus.
10:01I insist that they tie the bag for me.
10:06She brought me soap because my hand was dirty.
10:08Now, I'm going to clean it.
10:12Come to Vietnam.
10:13Come.
10:14Yes.
10:19Come to Vietnam.
10:21Come to Vietnam.
10:23Thank you.
10:25My dear.
10:28Very good.
10:31Peace be upon you.
10:32Peace be upon you.
10:33Okay.
10:34Bye-bye.
10:48I'm exhausted, guys.
10:49The road is difficult.
10:51God bless me.
10:53I stopped to eat.
10:55Pho?
10:56Pho.
10:57Pho.
10:58Pho?
10:59Pho.
11:00Pho.
11:03Pho.
11:08I found a random hotel on the road.
11:10I stopped.
11:11She let me enter the motorbike inside.
11:13I'll park it in the reception.
11:15The room here is 270,000.
11:18It costs 11 dollars.
11:22Let's see what 11 dollars in Vietnam brings you
11:25on the desert road.
11:27It's not very desert.
11:28It's Sahrawi.
11:31Okay.
11:33This room costs 11 dollars.
11:38There's a road in Sahrawi Vietnam from north to south.
11:41It was a tiring day, guys.
11:44I hope tomorrow will be better.
11:53Finally, today we're going to places we haven't seen in two days.
11:56Good morning, Haj.
11:58Hello.
12:04First of all, let's fill up the gas tank.
12:05It's better for him not to pass us.
12:07It solves all the problems we had.
12:09It's not normal how much they carry on the motorbikes.
12:12Look.
12:13The full tank costs 7 dollars.
12:23We arrived at Vinh Moc tunnels.
12:26Let's go inside and I'll show you the tunnels and tell you the story.
12:44The area I'm in now is called Vinh Linh.
12:47It's exactly on the border between north and south Vietnam.
12:52That's why it was a sensitive area.
12:55The people who lived in the area I'm in now were farmers and civilians.
12:59But these civilians were helping the army of north Vietnam in their war against America.
13:05So, of course, America started bombing the whole area.
13:09They wanted to force all the people of the area to go to the north more
13:13so they wouldn't help the army.
13:15What they were doing here, the people of the area,
13:17was delivering weapons and equipment to an island near here.
13:20Because we're on the sea.
13:21The island is called Con Co.
13:23And the army of north Vietnam was using that island to attack south Vietnam and the American forces.
13:29So, with the ongoing bombing, they had to find a solution.
13:32And what they did was to make tunnels underground.
13:38These tunnels are different from the ones used by the fighters
13:41that we'll see in south Vietnam, near Ho Chi Minh.
13:44Let's go inside and see what's in the tunnels.
13:47This is the third entrance.
13:53Wow!
13:59The tunnel I'm in now is called Vinh Moc.
14:01It's two kilometers long underground.
14:03And it has six entrances.
14:05And as a tourist, you can visit it and see how they lived underground.
14:09Because these tunnels were actually where the farmers lived.
14:13And they would just go out to plant or harvest and come back down.
14:17To stay safe.
14:24Look now.
14:25The tunnel is going down.
14:27Can you imagine?
14:28This whole tunnel was built with very simple materials.
14:32They didn't have the big machines.
14:34They were digging by hand.
14:36They started in 1965 and finished in 1967.
14:40Two years to build a city underground.
14:54Look how there were soldiers guarding the tunnel.
14:57They would sit here in a cave.
14:59As soon as someone would pass by, they would fall.
15:02Look how their rooms were.
15:03A small opening inside the tunnel.
15:05And they would put things on the ground.
15:08And they would eat, cook, and do everything.
15:11We have a whole system of life underground.
15:15This is the exit that leads straight to the sea.
15:20Oh yeah!
15:22The tunnels are really long.
15:24I sat here for 10 minutes and I'm tired.
15:26So how were people living here for years?
15:29This is the exit that they would use to deliver weapons and equipment.
15:34By boats to the island of Konko.
15:38Can you imagine?
15:39They were living next to this beach and this beauty.
15:42But they had to live underground.
15:48After all this walking, I discovered that I was still on the first floor of the tunnels.
15:52If I look down, I will find that there is still a road.
15:56The first floor was for housing and living.
15:59But the lower floors, as far as I understand, were shelters for bombs.
16:05Drilling bomb shelter.
16:08My hat?
16:10Our people live here.
16:15They live here?
16:16Yes.
16:17With the hat.
16:19With the hat?
16:20Yes.
16:25Ciao.
16:26Ciao.
16:27Hello.
16:28Hello.
16:29I found a road that is not lit and there are no signs.
16:32I don't know where it leads.
16:34But now I want to find out.
16:37I've been walking for 10 minutes and I haven't found a place yet.
16:45Let's go.
16:55I'm starting to get goosebumps.
17:02It is clear that this is a part of the tunnels that has not been excavated yet.
17:07Let's go back.
17:08Let's go.
17:14The strange thing is that I look at the Vietnamese who are walking in the tunnel.
17:17Their height is appropriate.
17:19But I can't stop.
17:20So my neck is tired.
17:22If I stop, my head will hit.
17:29My neck is tired and my back is tired.
17:31And all the sweat.
17:32The humidity inside is not normal.
17:34God help them.
17:35This tunnel is about 10 years old.
17:38As the Americans exploded this area,
17:41I tell you that each person who lived here,
17:43his share of the explosives was 7 tons.
17:47Can you imagine?
17:487 tons for each person.
17:49And yet, they couldn't reach the tunnels.
17:53Look at this hole.
17:54This is a bomb crater.
17:56This hole is made from the American bombing on the area.
18:00They were trying to reach the tunnels below.
18:04When they built the tunnels here,
18:07they were building them at a depth of 10 meters.
18:10But in the end, the American bombing could reach below 10 meters.
18:14So they went back and increased the depth to 30 meters.
18:17No American bomb could reach that depth
18:20except for one bomb.
18:22It reached 30 meters and didn't explode.
18:24And the people underground used its opening as an opening for evacuation.
18:29And they benefited from the fact that the bomb reached them.
18:35Look, even above the ground,
18:37they were building a number of passages
18:40that they used to move by walking or by bicycles.
18:44Or in any way,
18:45so that when they leave the tunnels,
18:47they don't walk on the ground from above
18:49and their movement is visible if someone is watching the area.
18:52This is another entrance.
18:53There are 6 entrances to enter the tunnels.
18:57Entrance number 5.
18:59Oh, hello!
19:01How are you?
19:04Welcome, welcome. Come out.
19:06I don't find...
19:07Your friends?
19:09No, no.
19:11For what?
19:13Very hard to breathe inside.
19:15It's normal.
19:16It's normal, yeah.
19:17This is my country.
19:19This is...
19:24I don't forget.
19:27Because I...
19:30I'm 68 today.
19:33You are 68?
19:34Yeah.
19:35You look much younger.
19:37Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you.
19:41Wow, 68.
19:43You remember the war?
19:49Vietnamese?
19:50Yeah, yeah.
19:51Bombs.
20:18Leave their homeland to go...
20:21Leave their eyes to fight.
20:23And their eyes were innocent.
20:25Wow.
20:26You were teacher?
20:28Teacher.
20:29Yes?
20:30You were very, very intern.
20:33She was a teacher.
20:34So her students...
20:35She's telling me about her students
20:37who left school to go fight in the war.
20:39Hello.
20:42Hello.
20:46Hello.
20:48Hello.
20:51Bye-bye.
20:52Bye-bye.
20:53Bye-bye.
20:54Thank you.
20:56Thank you.
20:57Thank you.
21:00Thank you.
21:01Thank you.
21:05Thank you.
21:06Thank you.
21:07Thank you.
21:08Thank you.
21:09Thank you.
21:10By God, this chicken went into the war with me.
21:12Down in the tunnels.
21:13Look.
21:14How many hits I got on my head and it saved me.
21:16By God, really, God bless it.
21:18Now it's time for ice cream.
21:25I'm burnt.
21:26In Vietnam, how is the ice cream?
21:29Hong Kong.
21:30In Vietnam.
21:31Banh Hoi Hong.
21:32Banh Chi.
21:33She thought I was speaking Vietnamese because of these two words.
21:38Yes, please.
21:44By God, you understand me.
21:49This is the secret of life.
21:51When you're thirsty, a fan comes to you.
21:57Vietnam, very good.
21:58There's an army in Vietnam.
22:00She wants to take a picture with me.
22:01It's an honor.
22:05Take off the mask.
22:10She gave it to me.
22:11She said, it's her son.
22:12Hello, Vietnam.
22:14Hello, Vietnam.
22:16Hello.
22:17Thank you.
22:18Thank you.
22:19Bye-bye.
22:22Thank you.
22:23Bye-bye.
22:28We're going back to the motorbike.
22:29You're asking me how I'm safe.
22:30But I left the motorbike with everything.
22:32With my life, basically.
22:34And left.
22:37But, thank God, so far I haven't had any bad situations.
22:48The next day.
22:59I've been driving for about half an hour.
23:01And on the side of the street, I'm seeing these grains of wheat.
23:05I don't understand the idea.
23:07It's obvious that it's the season of wheat harvest.
23:09Or is it rice?
23:11Oh, this is rice.
23:17Okay.
23:18I made a mistake, guys.
23:19This is rice.
23:20It's the first time I see rice.
23:21How it looks when it's harvested.
23:23Look.
23:24I think they're going to leave it in the sun.
23:26So that it dries well.
23:28And then the grains of rice grow.
23:30From inside these things.
23:32What are they called?
23:34Good.
23:35Rice?
23:36This is rice?
23:37Yes.
23:38Yes?
23:41All the streets are full of rice.
23:48The next day.
23:59I stopped on my way to a military cemetery.
24:01Truong Song Cemetery.
24:03To offer my condolences and respect to the Vietnamese resistance fighters.
24:08Who gave their lives to gain freedom.
24:12Listen to my condolences.
24:22The military cemetery of Truong Song
24:24was supposed to have 33,000 martyrs.
24:28But only 13,000 of them were found.
24:32The rest remained hidden in the mountains.
24:35Until today, they haven't been found.
24:42In general, 3 million people died in the Vietnam War.
24:47Some of them are 1 million Vietnamese civilians.
24:50And some of them are 1 million Vietnamese soldiers.
24:5460,000 American soldiers.
24:57And the rest are in Cambodia, Laos, and other places.
25:05Most of the graves here were made for the people who gave their lives to build the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
25:11This road was the reason for Vietnam's victory in the war against America.
25:16They wanted to honor them.
25:18And they buried the people who died on the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
25:21Specifically, in this place.
25:23I will tell you more about the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
25:26Wait for me.
25:28Ho Chi Minh Trail
25:36We have several sculptures that show the struggle of the Vietnamese people.
25:40The sculpture is really beautiful.
25:42They carved it in a rock that looks like granite.
25:44I don't know what it is.
25:46But the details are really beautiful.
25:48You can feel a sense of history.
25:53Xin chào.
25:58Xin chào.
26:09Bye-bye.
26:10Look at the sculptures on the door of the cemetery.
26:13Most of them are for the people who were digging in the mountains and on the Ho Chi Minh Trail.
26:19So that the soldiers' road goes from North Vietnam to the south.
26:24In our language, it's like this.
26:26What name do you think it is?
26:32What is your name?
26:35My name is Big Mama
26:39I can't remember my name.
26:50Hello.
26:53Ban Khoi Khong
26:57Ban Khoi Khong
27:03They have diabetes
27:05They need rest
27:09I ordered one
27:11Diabetes
27:19One of the things that is popular in Vietnam
27:21Is that most of the shops
27:23Are a part of a house
27:25Like this place
27:27This is their house
27:29Over there is the kitchen
27:31And over here is the bedroom
27:33They have Wi-Fi
27:35And this is their shop
27:37Anyone who passes by the street
27:39Stops to buy here
27:41But they actually live here
27:43And all the places in Vietnam
27:45The restaurants and shops
27:47Are on the same system
27:51Wow
27:53Finally
27:55We started walking
27:57I just discovered that
27:59The time I am in
28:01Is a hot wave
28:03Usually people don't come to Vietnam at this time
28:07God bless you
28:09Let's continue
28:11Finally
28:19Finally
28:29After the battle of Dien Bien Phu
28:31The battle where the Vietnamese soldiers
28:33Won against the French colonization
28:35And the French colonization ended
28:37Ho Chi Minh declared
28:39That Vietnam has become
28:41An independent country
28:43For the first time in history
28:49But in the south of Vietnam
28:51There was a ruler called Dao Bai
28:53He was against America
28:55And he didn't believe in the ideas that
28:57Ho Chi Minh was promoting in the north
28:59So the Geneva agreement was made
29:01Which meant that
29:03Vietnam should be divided
29:05Between the north and the south
29:07And the 17th Geneva agreement
29:09So that in two years
29:11There will be elections
29:13And the people will decide
29:15If they want the north to rule them
29:17Or the south
29:19But of course the south
29:21Rejected the elections
29:23Because they were sure
29:25That the north will win
29:27And if the north wins
29:29There will be a bigger spread
29:31Of the ideas that
29:33America rejected
29:38This is all that is left
29:40Of this helicopter
29:42That was dropped by the Vietnamese soldiers
29:46They had anti-aircraft guns
29:48And they surprised the American planes
29:51Before we continue the history of the war
29:53Let me take you for a ride
29:55In the military base of Khe San
29:57Which I just arrived
29:59This base was south of the border
30:01Between the north and the south of Vietnam
30:03This base was used by the Americans
30:05To intercept their attacks on the north
30:07But today there is a museum
30:09In this museum
30:11There are destroyed American planes
30:13The planes that were left by America
30:15The first thing we see here
30:17Is this great plane
30:19Unfortunately there is no information about it
30:21But it is huge
30:23This is the only thing I want to know
30:25And there are missiles on it
30:27Unfortunately there is no entrance
30:29I wanted to go inside to see what is inside
30:31This is one of the real planes
30:33And the military base that we are in
30:35Is a real military base
30:37Here the American forces were fighting
30:39The North Vietnamese forces
30:41To support the south and their capital
30:43But in the end they failed
30:47Wow
30:49U.S. Air Force
30:51Let's continue our tour
30:53There are many places in the base
31:03The will of the people
31:05Really
31:07The will of the people
31:09To win over everything
31:11This is the base
31:13Where the U.S. Army was hiding
31:15If we go down
31:17Look
31:19Here we have a fully fortified room
31:21I don't know what this is
31:23Cement or sand
31:25But the amazing thing is outside
31:27Look at these trenches
31:29That the soldiers used to hide
31:31I have seen these trenches
31:33Only in movies
31:35When I watch American movies
31:37The soldiers fight and hide in places like this
31:39And the soldier shoots his head
31:41And comes back
31:45After a while we will talk about
31:47The reason that made the U.S. attack Vietnam
31:49But the real reason
31:51Not the reason they invented
31:53Is that the U.S. was against
31:55The joint expansion
31:57In East Asia, it didn't want to lose allies
31:59So the south of Vietnam
32:01Was against the idea of the joint expansion
32:03So the U.S. wanted to support the south
32:05On the account of the north
32:07To stop the joint expansion
32:09Because the north was supported
32:11By China and the Soviet Union
32:13Here we have the U.S. Army trenches
32:15Look
32:17The soldier used to take out his weapon
32:19From here
32:21And try to hit the enemies
32:23Through this opening
32:25Look here
32:27Another room
32:29This is the road
32:37Here we have the tanks
32:47Here we have a complete formation
32:51The helicopter behind me
32:53Is called CH-47
32:55This helicopter was used
32:57For transportation, rescue
32:59Military maneuvers
33:01And the service of the main helicopter
33:03So this is it
33:05It's huge
33:07But it wasn't a combat vehicle
33:09In the first place
33:17Here we have some of the equipment
33:19That the U.S. Army used
33:26This is what I'm telling you
33:28Some of the bombs
33:30That the U.S. Army used
33:32On the border area
33:34Between the north and the south
33:36These are all the remains of real bombs
33:38That were used on this area
33:40At that time
33:42Come on
33:46Thank you
33:48Come on
33:50Come on
33:52Yes
33:54I ordered a cup of Vietnamese coffee
33:56They are a country that produces coffee
33:58And their coffee is different from any other country
34:00I don't know, they have a special machine
34:02That makes the coffee bitter
34:04Very bitter
34:08No, this time
34:10Vietnamese soldiers
34:12Really? You like it?
34:14But nice beard
34:16Thank you
34:18I travel alone
34:20But you like my hat?
34:22I like
34:24Thank you
34:26This is from 1964
34:28This is a rain of water
34:30For the American soldiers
34:32From 1964
34:34Oh my God
34:36It's written on it
34:38How much?
34:40How much?
34:42500,000
34:44500,000
34:46So this rain
34:48It's not expensive
34:50For its date
34:52It's not expensive
34:54For its date
34:56A rain of water
34:58From the American soldiers
35:00From the Vietnam war
35:02In 1964
35:04For 20 dollars
35:06Oh my God
35:08An accident
35:10Oh my God
35:12I hope no one gets hurt
35:14By the iron or the slave
35:18Oh my God
35:20It looks like a strong accident
35:36This is a bee
35:38Hello
35:40They took us with them
35:42A bee
35:48I saw
35:50People selling food on the street
35:52I don't know what kind of food
35:54But there are a lot of people
35:56So it must be tasty
36:00What do you have?
36:02What do you have?
36:04What do you have?
36:06Chicken
36:08It's obvious they have chicken
36:10Pho
36:12Noodles
36:16I don't know how it will turn out
36:18But I'm hungry
36:20I'm going to sit here
36:22Look how the pho is a whole dough
36:24Then they cut it
36:26Now I understand how the pho is made
36:28Is there any egg I can eat?
36:30Ok
36:32Very good
36:46This food I know in the Philippines
36:48It's called Balut
36:50It's a sauce
36:52But it's not complete yet
36:54The composition
36:56Inside the egg
36:58I take it before it's complete
37:00Then I eat it
37:02Bon Appetit
37:10I put salt on it
37:12Come on
37:14I don't know how to say thank you
37:16Come on
37:18This is one of the strangest food in the world
37:20I don't want to try it
37:22I can try it when I go to the Philippines
37:24Because it's famous there
37:26How do I say
37:28Bon Appetit in Vietnamese?
37:32Come on
37:34Come on
37:36Come on
37:46God bless you
37:52Noodles with fish
37:54Noodles with fish
37:58God
38:00Oh my God
38:04Look at the amount of dust and garbage
38:06And the trucks I was passing by
38:14Wow
38:24Wow
38:28If I tell you what I did
38:30You'll say I'm crazy and stupid
38:32But it's worth it
38:34I came back 2 hours from the road I took
38:36Because there was a place I wanted to see
38:38And I passed it without noticing
38:40This bridge
38:42This bridge
38:44We can see in it
38:46A place between
38:48North and South
38:50Hello
38:52Where are you from?
38:54Palestine
38:56Palestine?
38:58Do you travel here?
39:00Yes, I'm a tourist
39:02If we go back to 1975
39:04Half of me is in South Vietnam
39:06And the other half is in North Vietnam
39:08And we have this line
39:16Since we're here
39:18Let me tell you an important story
39:20After the French colonization
39:22There was a slight conflict
39:24Between North and South
39:26But the actual war started
39:28In 1955
39:30And the reason is an accident
39:32The Tonkin Gulf
39:34If we walk along this river
39:36About 30 km
39:38We'll reach the Tonkin Gulf
39:40Which is in Vietnam
39:42This Gulf had
39:44An American military ship
39:46Called the Maddox
39:48In 1954
39:50America claimed that
39:52North Vietnamese forces
39:54Attacked the Maddox ship
39:56In the Tonkin Gulf twice
39:58And because of this accident
40:00The American Congress gave
40:02President Johnson
40:04All the necessary powers
40:06To control the situation
40:08And of course, he did what was expected
40:10A full war started on North Vietnam
40:12A war claimed that
40:14Half a million American soldiers
40:16Arrived in Vietnam in 1969
40:18Can you imagine?
40:20Half a million American soldiers
40:22Came to Vietnam
40:24To fight in a country
40:26That was the end of the world for them
40:28All of this, of course, as we said
40:30Because of the Cold War
40:32They wanted to end the joint expansion
40:34But what no one knew at the time
40:36Was that the Tonkin Accident
40:38Was a fabricated accident
40:40From America to start this war
40:42And for this reason, the Vietnam War started
40:44Because America wanted a war
40:46See?
40:48I drove for about 2 hours
40:50To get back to the road I came from
40:52Just to tell you this story
40:54So if you haven't subscribed yet, please do
40:56I'm really tired
40:58Here we have a memorial
41:00Let's go and see what's on it
41:02Xin chào
41:08This is the ship that came from
41:10North Vietnam
41:12This flag is 12 meters long
41:14And the goal of this flag
41:16Is to show the people
41:18In the South
41:20That the people of the North
41:22Have a high patriotic spirit
41:24They made a very big flag
41:26And around the flag
41:28They put a big part of the history of the region
41:30Here, how the industry developed
41:32Education developed
41:34I don't really understand
41:36The timeline of this
41:38Here we have Ho Chi Minh
41:40And finally, here we have
41:42The Viet Cong
41:44The People's Front for the Liberation of South Vietnam
41:46Won
41:48Good morning
41:50I'll see you tomorrow
41:52And watch the video until the end
41:54Because we will reach stages of war
41:56And history and very interesting stories
41:58And we will go to the South
42:00To the tunnels used by the fighters
42:10Good morning
42:12Before I do anything today
42:14I want to change the engine oil
42:16Honestly, it's worth it
42:18I'm tired
42:20Really tired
42:22Four days of continuous driving
42:24Look at the oil that comes out of it
42:26It's black, I don't know if it's normal
42:28Or the oil is really
42:30Dirty and wants to change
42:40Thank you
42:42I don't know if it's cheap or expensive
42:44But the oil change was $4
42:58While I was driving
43:00I noticed a group of fields
43:02And farms on the right of the road
43:04It's clear that it's harvest season
43:06So I went down
43:08I see people
43:14The children are afraid of me
43:20They are preparing rice
43:30Is this wheat or rice?
43:32I don't know
43:34I don't understand
43:38This is this?
43:40Yes
43:44Rice
43:46Yes
43:48Okay, thank you, bye
43:54I've never seen the rice
43:56I always see rice fields from afar
43:58But I never understood how
44:00They harvest it
44:02So now I want to understand
44:08Rice
44:18It's clear that what happens
44:20In the hot season
44:22After the rice is cooked
44:24The rice will be in these fields
44:26In these things
44:28Do you see?
44:30From here the rice grains come
44:32That we eat
44:34Wow
44:36Look
44:38Let me try to eat a grain of rice
44:40It came out of the plant
44:42What's inside?
44:44You can see inside a grain of rice
44:46But it's very soft
44:48With a little pressure
44:50It becomes powder
44:52I think the drying process
44:54When they put it under the sun
44:56It makes it more solid
44:58And solid
45:00Hello
45:06Hello
45:10Hello
45:14I don't know if I said it right
45:16Or they are surprised that I speak the language
45:18Hello
45:20Hello
45:22Hello
45:24This should mean how are you
45:26But it's not right
45:28It's not right
45:32Hello
45:34Hello
45:36How are you?
45:38How are you?
45:46So these guys
45:48Are the rice fields
45:50That we eat in our country
45:54How are you Vietnam?
45:56How are you Vietnam?
45:58How are you Vietnam?
46:00Vietnam beautiful
46:02Come on
46:04Come on
46:06Come on
46:10These kids are the only ones
46:12That understand how to say thank you
46:14But with their dreams
46:22He is not angry
46:24They are happy
46:26They are happy
46:28Why are you sad?
46:30Come here
46:32Look at their house
46:34Most of it is made of wood
46:36It's simple
46:42You hurt me
46:46Let's go back to our love
46:48Let's go
46:58Goodbye
47:04The whole road
47:06To our left and right
47:08Are rice fields
47:12Can you see?
47:18Let's go
47:36As usual, our morning starts
47:40With coffee
47:44This is the beginning of Ho Chi Minh road
47:46From here I will drive
47:48Part of it
47:58At the beginning of the Vietnam war
48:00There was a group called the Viet Cong
48:02They were in the south of Vietnam
48:04But they were against the American occupation
48:06And against the southern government
48:08So they were resistance
48:10But from the south
48:12So these resistance wanted someone to help them
48:14And give them weapons and equipment
48:16And the side that supported them
48:18Was the north of Vietnam
48:20Because they were their allies
48:22But to give them weapons and everything
48:24They needed a road
48:26Because the border between the north and the south
48:28Is a very narrow area
48:30So they invented
48:32The Ho Chi Minh trail
48:34I am now at the Da Krong bridge
48:36This was the place
48:38Where the Ho Chi Minh trail started
48:40Back then it was not a big bridge
48:42It was a small iron bridge
48:44And they used it on their way
48:46From the north to the south
48:48They made a memorial here
48:50For the Ho Chi Minh trail
48:52But I don't know the details
48:54And it's not written anywhere
48:56So now that we have reached the bridge
48:58And the beginning of the Ho Chi Minh trail
49:00I will take you with me
49:02To a part of the Ho Chi Minh trail
49:04We will drive about 2 hours
49:06To be able to drive the motor
49:08In an important part of Vietnam history
49:10And I will tell you more
49:12About this amazing Ho Chi Minh trail
49:14The Ho Chi Minh trail
49:38Behind these mountains
49:40Is the Laos state
49:42I am now in the border area
49:44The Laos state
49:46Is the country that had
49:48The biggest amount of bombings
49:50In the world
49:52The country that had the most bombs
49:54In the world
49:56These bombs were dropped during the Vietnam war
49:58Although Laos did not have a war
50:00And the reason is that the Ho Chi Minh trail
50:02Was passing through the Laos state
50:04So the US
50:06Rejected the offer
50:08Of the Laos state
50:10In every war in Vietnam
50:12Look here
50:14They have a Laos flag
50:18I think it's a transportation company
50:26The road is very beautiful
50:28The nature around you
50:30The rice fields
50:32I even entered the mountains
50:34And the villages
50:36Like this village
50:38How people live here
50:40The road is very fun
50:42Especially for those who like to ride bikes
50:44The mountains are full of
50:46Roads that you can ride
50:48While driving
50:50I think this is their supermarket
50:52This supermarket
51:08A small
51:10Do you have a small?
51:12Look how the supermarket here
51:14Is actually their house
51:16Here we have
51:18The kitchen table
51:20There is a bed there
51:22There is a fridge
51:24And the places where they cook
51:26So the supermarket
51:28Is their house
51:30Everywhere is the same
51:32The strange thing is that everywhere I go
51:34I see the same thing
51:36I don't know what it is
51:38There are places where they put a god
51:40I think it's a religious thing
51:42Maybe it brings blessings
51:44To the house
51:56Their house is one of the simplest
51:58Most of them have a space
52:00I think they stay there
52:02When they want to rest
52:04This is the bedroom
52:06And the closed rooms
52:08Under the house they put wood
52:10And wood
52:12And look how they put their kitchen stuff
52:14After washing it
52:16Here they have
52:18The sink
52:20And the washing machine
52:22And we have a water tank
52:24To take water

55:54He is a Vietnamese
55:56He was in the Vietnamese army
56:04The Ho Chi Minh trail
56:06Was a group of mountain roads
56:08Which lead from North Vietnam
56:10To South Vietnam
56:12Most of the roads
56:14Pass from Laos
56:16Then they go to South Vietnam
56:18In different areas
56:20What made this road
56:22First, you can't see it from the sky
56:24The road was covered with trees
56:26Second, they were allowed
56:28To make attacks
56:30From different areas
56:32And they weren't limited
56:34To North and South Vietnam
56:36This ruined America
56:38When the road was built
56:40You had to walk
56:42For 6 months to get to the south
56:44But in the early stages of the war
56:46Even trucks were allowed
56:48And they were able to
56:50Cover the road for a week
56:56I left the motorbike
56:58For 15 minutes
57:00It's still there
57:02Safe and secure
57:04But I won't do this
57:06In a big city like
57:08Hanoi
57:10Because the people are nice
57:12And simple
