Hanoi
Vietnam's capital Hanoi, smaller and quieter than Ho Chi Minh City, lies on the Northern ‘Red River’ Delta. Strong traces of its Chinese and French colonial heritage remain, adding to its attraction.
Hanoi’s Hoan Kiem Lake is the focal point of the city, where locals come to exercise and practise Tai-Chi, and visitors can relax at waterside cafés to soak up the atmosphere and admire Tortoise Tower, a beautiful pavilion sitting on a small island, and the Temple of the Jade Mound.
Other Hanoi highlights include Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, Ly Quoc Su Pagoda, the Temple of Literature, and the Old Quarter – original home to Hanoi’s craft guilds and several pagodas, still active as places of worship.
