Currency: Vietnamese currency known as "shield", (DONG, the intention of copper, or Chinese) symbols VND. The exchange rate is now roughly 1USD = 15750VND, 1RMB = 1920VND, a good way to remember 10000VND ≈ 5RMB. Throughout in Vietnam, the U.S. dollar can be basically circulation; in the Sino-Vietnamese border, Hanoi and Ha Long Bay, the RMB can be basically direct purchase of goods. In all of the bank, and can be very convenient to use dollar VND yuan not work. Vietnam, where there is a convertible currency, called "gold shop" that can take the RMB exchange VND. Dong has been devalued, the dollar is best to use the number of hands for the amount of use with the U.S. dollar and Vietnamese dong is the most economical way.
Also need to note that Viet Nam was the West's counting method, each 3 for some, used to say so many thousands, or omitted 1000. 300,000 rupiah for example a meal, the Vietnamese said that San Baiqian shield or 300, the actual is 150 renminbi You must not give 300 ah!
