Vietnam : Hanoi - The Old Quarter (36 Street) 越南： 河内 36 古街

Vietnam - Hanoi

It was interesting to be able to visit Vietnam, especially Hanoi. Vietnam not a fancy and advance as Malaysia, but it might able to be compared with Thailand and Indonesia.

Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. Lies in the North of the country and is one of the country’s top tourist hot spots. Somehow, I miss the feel and food of Vietnam and would love to re-visit there and same goes to Laos, which is a small city with pure heart.

Hanoi offers French-colonial architecture, a rich food culture and a long history (the city celebrated its millennium in 2010.) The most well known and important districts in Hanoi are Ba Dinh District (aka the French Quarter) where the government offices are located and Hoan Kiem District (aka the Old Quarter) which is considered the city’s business hub and main tourist destination.

- Hoan Kiem District (aka the Old Quarter) -

We experienced the sight seeing of the local lifestyle, with sipping coffee and tea with small bench, the motorcyclist that like school of fish. In Chinese language, they said that if we come to Hanoi, we will be looking at motorcyclist and listen to lots of honk!

Just like the Chinese, Vietnamese believes in Buddhism.
