Exciting Places to Visit In Hanoi, Vietnam
Hanoi is, of course, one of the most popular traveling destination people choose on their trips to Vietnam. The capital city of Vietnam lies alongside the Hong river. Recently nominated as one of a few thousand years old capital cities, Hanoi holds many traditional heritages that would amaze you.
I believe that for first time travelers, they’d be easily lost among many beautiful places to visit when they come to Hanoi. That’s why I will share with you my list of worthwhile visiting places.
The restaurant and hotel chains
I can tell you that it’s not hard to find a good restaurant in Vietnam because we really love foods. And in Vietnamese, we call them “nha hang Hanoi” or “quan ngon Hanoi”. And I bet you will be surprised with the foods you could put your hands on in those hotels and restaurants. They’re really delicious.
There are so many unusual foods that you might haven’t tasted before. I can name you some of them: fried scorpions, satay frog... And if you’re a fan of “Pho” you will have plenty of places serving that delicious noodles. One thing I really like about the restaurants and hotels in Vietnam is the way they decorate their rooms. It’s the traditional asian decorative accents that would amaze everyone. So, it’s highly recommend that you visit these places if you really want to enjoy the Vietnamese atmosphere.
Take a visit at the Old Quarter
One of the most exciting place to visit when you come to Hanoi is the Old Quarter. With 36 old streets running across each other, you will find it really feels like you’re traveling through a maze. And each one of them specialized in one traditional craft long time ago. You can still find tons of nice and interesting things here.
Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum
This place is the place where ‘Uncle Ho’ - the great father of Vietnam - lying. His body has been placed and protected by guards here for a long time. And to people in Vietnam, it’s a great honor to have the permission to come and see him. If you want to take a visit to meet Uncle Ho, you better act like other Vietnamese. Be polite and show the respect.
Whatever you do on your Vietnam trip, Hanoi will definitely be one of the most memorable places that you visit.
