HANOI HOLIDAY

Capital of Vietnam

Hanoi is, besides from being the capital of Vietnam, a fascinating blend of East and West, with Chinese influence from centuries of dominance, and French design from its colonial past. The “Old Quarter” is a very atmospheric  place to be and you could spend quite some time just soaking in the atmosphere from outside one of the many Bia Hoi (fresh beer) establisments and watching the local characters and street life… Did I mention that a beer is around 20 cent? 

Hanoi is one of Asia's most charming cities…it is often referred to as “The Paris of The East”. You will not get bored in Hanoi…You will find a wide variety of street stands and restaurants with prices varying from 1 USD and up. You will find live music establishments in the city – and the music normally starts around nine  o`clock and close around midnight.

The Old Quarter, also known as the 36 streets, is a bustling area of narrow streets and home to literally thousands of small businesses and shopkeepers. If you have a weakness for silk: Hanoi is The Promised Land for silk and custom tailoring. The bargains are among the best in Asia.

Historic Places

Ho Chi Minh Complex:
It was completed in 1975 and the complex contains Ho Chi Minh's mausoleum, his former stilt-house residence, the Presidential Palace and the Ho Chi Minh museum.

The Temple of Literature:
Originally built as a temple to Confucius, this is the site of Vietnam's first university dating back to 1070. Inside are the stone stele mounted on the backs of turtles,  in- scribed with the names of the university's
graduates. The complex is divided into five courtyards with different paths that would originally have been reserved for the Emperor and his mandarins. One of the courtyards contains the statue of Confucius guarded by two beautiful bronze storks standing on turtles. The temple highlights the importance that Vietnamese society placed then and now on education.

The Museum of Ethnology:
This museum is widely acknowledged as the best in the country and has an extensive display dedicated to Vietnam's 54 Ethnic minority peoples.

The Ngoc Son temple:
The temple is set on a tiny island on the Hoan Kiem Lake, its history dating back to the 13th century. The temple is reached by crossing the The Huc Bridge which literally means the 'Place Touched by Morning Sunbeams'.
