Located in the center of Hanoi, Hanoi church has had a quiet bustle. Church is always open to visitors at all times, except when the ceremony.

It has a large yard; they hear the sound of children playing in the adjacent school, occasionally a few birds Ethyl jump shots on the lower canopy. In the hall is a large church with rows of benches and the sparkling glass windows.

Not only had the largest cathedral in Hanoi, where there are more people called “cooperatives”. Because only in a small area around the city of poets, Chung, Au Trieu, Ly Quoc Su had all kinds of restaurants and shops to sell for people of all ages.

Young Adults prefer to church because this is an area famous lemon tea and coffee in Hanoi sidewalk. Hot summer with lemon tea became fashionable for young people. Dating, birthday, meeting, gathering all leading to lemon tea.

By winter, the shop is less busy but still dark days. The afternoon is the busiest time. This is an appropriate time to sit along the church, drink a glass of water, watching the sun slowly shuts down and starts concentrations floral aroma milk.


If you do not like lemon tea, you can choose the luxurious cafe or younger. There are cute little shops like La Place, Hanoi House, as well as comparison shop chic hot, Paris Deli ...
It is also home to many cafes in Hanoi mentioned handbook popular Lonely Planet travel. So many foreign tourists also known here as consistent with Moca, Highland.

It would be flawed if prompted to “cooperative “without talking about the food here.

This is also the busiest shopping for clothing store specializing in silk and handmade jewelry, crafts and fine art.

Just take a walk, you will find a few favorite items and originality. And who knows, you will also want to go back “cooperative “this much again.

24 hours for living in Hanoi

If there are 24 hours to live in Hanoi, what would you do? Please refer to the very interesting suggestion below. My friend used to be a tour guide said that there are many foreign backpack tourists alone in Hanoi. Many had only 24 hours to “live" with this city, so after they left Hanoi on various forums wrote "lament" that they are exposed exclusively to Hanoi as a destination, but cannot touch a corner of Hanoi soul.

So today, if you only have 24 hours in Hanoi, I would volunteer to lead you. Have you actually lived with the capital of my country? Have to get up early, let’s start with an early morning routine. 4 o'clock in the morning, I’ll pick you up and carry you across the West Lake, where every magic mist like a thousand years ago. In the early summer, when Hanoi was not awakened by Kin Kin vehicle, you will also find the smell of lotus in the wind.

But now is the last day of the year, West Lake lotus season was off. But step into Quang Ba flower market you will have the opportunity to touch the soul of Hanoi. Because in this land, every float trip is a highlight on the street and each bottle are always fresh flowers the family habit of Hanoi.
Like all other wholesale markets, the largest flower market in Hanoi is from midnight meeting, but last to 3, 4 hours when is the most crowded. The flower inserts, insert the flowers, the voice coil laughter. You will not be able to do the camera clicks a row.

And you can chat with people all year round care for the suburban flower fields, so each morning, the bus helped put flowers on the streets of Hanoi, the capital city adorned for a thousand years old, that I sure, you hardly find in other city.  I’ll take you to the most popular noodle shop in Hanoi situated on Bat Dan Street, or just cave to taste the world famous city of Hanoi, while watching each doorway of the City open neck pick a new date. And there is nothing more wonderful, if you and I go in with the flow along the horizontal Quarter, Hoan Kiem Lake swept down into the early morning.

I’ll tell you about Turtle Tower, the sacred turtle in Hoan Kiem Lake. It’s just a legend, both rare animals of the world today but the clouds are invasive red-eared turtle habitat. Standing between Huc bridges, I’ll tell you about the “specialty" lake of my nation's capital.


Hundreds of lakes in the city are really good examples in which there are few cities. And thus, the Hanoi people are very proud of the lake in the city. Then, I will take you to visit Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. Our people are often called Vietnam President Ho Chi Minh loved by his name: Uncle Ho. Visit Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum is a chance for you to learn deeply about a national hero of our country, has gained worldwide recognition.

If you are a lover of literature, I will take you to explore winding alley in the small Bui Xuong Trach’s town, where the writer lived quietly. His garden is large cards but not as ancient Buddha statues Quan route no longer just in the middle of the garden as the author of “Golden Fire”, “For Excellence”, “No king “has cut a portion of the ancestors to build a house to sell for money for his two sons, but still large enough for you to discover in a few hours. Nguyen Huy Card is one of the famous writer in Vietnam, is also the author of a work is translated into many languages around the world (hence, perhaps he is the writer Vietnam cards received net cash best pen from foreign publishing units).


If you do not refuse, writer Nguyen Huy will invite you to eat an informal lunch with the vegetables in the garden and tells the story writing, interesting life story in a slow whispering voice. If you are painting the word of love, I’ll take you round the edge of the village of West Lake, met Bui Hanh Be, 91 years old, the painting is quite special word of Hanoi; you’ll notice a surprising, unexpected fun. Written in Chinese characters or scripts, but are symbolic in nature, the text is annotated with Vietnam and the international language below for you to from any country in the world can “read “the picture content. For example the word " Code " shaped span a horse 's hooves, tossing mane, accompanied by the word " horse " and the word Eevalo below.

If you are a lover of books, I’ll ring you back on Bat Dan Street, where there is both an old book store in the heart of the old town old teacher named Mr. Phan Trac Canh. The house number 5 always closed the door, turned the front as busy street disallow the golden rule about... 10 tons of old books filled every corner, along the stairs. Old books in many different areas, there are special rare publications, such as the book “Souvenirs de Hue “print from 1867 by French author Michel Duc Hue Chaigneau wrote memories about worn wrapped carefully kidney. The book “modern Chinese literature textbooks letter” published in 1928 and “Five geniuses” in 1929 also intact.


The owner of the “private library” was also collected books about Hanoi is quite impressive. Many foreign researchers like Professor Yao Takao archaeologist husband or wife and Abe Yuriko Kikuchi Seichi... also had to look to “clean house “thanks to his scene looking for the documents for the study. Afternoon Hanoi, I will lead you to the Opera House runs through the city and do not forget to turn over the books Trang Tien Street. Then I take you to Temple of Literature, where I will have plenty to tell you about the history and traditions of Hanoi. 3/2010, 82 doctoral stone steles were built from 1484 to 1780, has been recognized as a UNESCO documentary heritage of the world and the beer was ice has become the first world heritage site of Hanoi.

Leaving the Temple of Literature, the car runs really slowly on Hoang Dieu Street, and shows you the simple house where General Vo Nguyen Giap lives with his family many decades. “The General “- make sure that you already know the name, he was associated with the war to protect Vietnamese people.
When the city lights up, I’ll walk with you to the final step of a day in Hanoi, through the door Gate - a single gate remains just been renovated to turn into a “stranger”.  And I’ll tell you about the cell door were lost the battles of the civil and military capital to protect every inch of land is much loved.

Dinner has come. I invite you to Cha Ca restaurant - a place has been included in the list of “10 places need to before you die “worldwide. Background downs of this restaurant is the story I think will surprise you there. Then we lined up the Long Bien Bridge - the bridge crossed the age of 100, became a familiar symbol of Hanoi. Just walking on the bridge, just hear waves gently slapping the Red River around her and rushes to the bitter cold winds of winter characterized Hanoi via sliding collar. I want to stop here to offer you a cup of coffee in a cafe on Thanh Nien Road, so you look up and down a crowded street.

The experience in 24 short hours, I also believe that you have touched the depth, touching a corner and soul of Thang Long.

Things to do in Hanoi

Most visitors to Vietnam will begin their holiday by flying into Hanoi. With it's atmospheric old quarter, lantern-fringed lake and an abundance of bustle and noise resonating from the local stalls and mopeds, it's easy to spend a happy couple of days experiencing this vibrant Asian city.


1. Get lost amongst the steamy streets of Hanoi's old quarter

Hanoi's old town is a myriad of sights, smells and noise. Give yourself time on your Vietnam holiday to wander into the heart of the city's narrow streets, finding pop up stalls on every corner selling delicious cuisine, and dodging mopeds as they wind lazily in and out of strolling pedestrians.


2. Attempt to cross a road

When you first arrive in bustling Hanoi the sheer amount of mopeds (and lack road rules) can be slightly daunting. However, once you realise that you won't get much sightseeing done without crossing a road or two, just start walking across slowly and you'll find that the drivers will just wind around you and you'll get to the other side with no problems.


3. Visit the Huc Bridge & Hoan Kiem river at night

This famous bridge is definitely worth a visit on your Hanoi trip. In the daytime the bridge is flanked by emerald water, but at night the waterside becomes lit by lanterns hanging from the trees and the bridge glows a firey red, adding to the reflections in the lake. It really is a not to be missed sight on your Vietnam holiday.

4. Visit a temple during Tet (Vietnamese new year)

If you manage to book your Vietnam trip over TET, you will find it is a great time to experience this spiritual city. All through February the smell of incense fills the air and you'll spot shrines and offerings all around. If you decide to visit a temple or two you will more than likely discover a religious ritual occuring and brightly coloured flowers on display. If you see a statue of a turtle, don't forget to pat it on the head for good luck, and if you're feeling flush, tuck a couple of dong under it as your own personal offering.
