Why go à HANOI?

The capital of Vietnam is a city with a rich past, where the different stages of its history come together. Hanoi is considered by some to be the country's most authentic city, having preserved its architectural heritage and traditions. In Hanoi, you'll find pagodas and thousand-year-old temples, French colonial architecture and imposing Soviet-inspired buildings. It's a pleasant city to discover on foot, in the shade of the many trees that line the avenues. A stroll through the Quartier des 36 rues et corporations (Old Quarter) will allow you to soak up the special atmosphere of this endearing city. Hanoi's inhabitants love to gather around its many lakes, the most emblematic of which is the famous Hoàn Kiêm Lake in the center of the city. It takes several days to discover the different facets of the capital, which is a veritable open-air museum.
