Being the first and also the oldest high school in Hue, originally Quoc Hoc (National High
School) was the school for children from royal and noble families. French colonialists opened
this school in 1896 to train those who would serve the government. Therefore, at that time,
French was the main subject for students. Now it is named Hue National High School and is a
high-profile school that all students must pass a competitive entrance exam to get the
admission.
Established in 1896, after more than 100-year history, the school today is considered the largest
and also the most beautiful high school campus in Viet Nam. This surrounding makes a great
picture of red French designed buildings in harmony with green background of a lot of large
shady trees and stone benches.
Especially in spring, when “diep and dao” (a kind of cherry blossoms) is in bloom, the whole
picture is filled with pinky dots above red thatched tile. Students often call that period of time
"Pinky cloud season” and regard it as the most special moments of a year. These are the
reasons why Quoc Hoc is also called “Pinky school beside Perfume River Bank” in the song with
the same name.
Moreover, several Vietnamese political leaders have been learning here, including: Nguyen Tat
Thanh (President Ho Chi Minh), General Vo Nguyen Giap, Prime Minister Pham Van Dong, etc. In
addition, the school is famed for its students who are well-known poets (Xuan Dieu, Huy Can,
To Huu, Luu Trong Lu etc.), scientists (Ta Quang Buu, Ton That Tung, Dang Van Ngu, etc.),

Street food shoulder pole is familiar with Saigon people throughout many years. Nowadays it
has become a special thing that makes travelers curious. In small areas of District 1 and
District 3, we could count more than 100 vendors who earned money using shoulder poles. A
shoulder pole, also called a carrying pole, is a yoke of wood or bamboo, used by people to carry
a load. The vendors put their goods in two baskets from each end of the yoke.
In the downtown, we can meet young women with their shoulder poles. The baskets are covered
with plastic wrap carefully to protect the foods from the street dust. In a tight space of one
basket, she could mix the ingredients and bake the cake on a small charcoal which was
defended by carton. The ready cakes were put in other basket.
In the morning or evening, on rainy or sunny day,Saigon streets are marked by shoulder poles of
people from different regions of the country, which has become a unique part of Saigon. It has
been said that it isn’t hard to live in Saigon if you work hard. With the carrying pole on
shoulders, the vendor has turned it into a “store’'. The reason is very simple, they don't have
enough money to open a real store. Every day these women continue their journey through
Saigon streets under the sun and the rain, selling cheap things or street foods to earn money
and feed their children.
