Description
Motorbikes, seen everywhere in Vietnam, are the main means of transportation for the Vietnamese people because they are affordable and can easily navigate crowded, narrow city streets and small country roads. While visiting Ho Chi Minh City, it was a fascinating cultural experience to observe the traffic flow of thousands of motorbikes navigating the crowded city streets, usually without incident in spite of a somewhat loose following of traffic laws. It was also amazing to see the variety and the amount of items that get expertly piled onto these motorbikes for transport from one location to another. This couple seems to be carrying merchandise to sell at a market or roadside stand.
