What to see in Hanoi

Hanoi is the multi-layered capital of Vietnam, where ancient history coexists with colonial architecture and modern business rhythm. The name of the city literally means surrounded by a river, and this water element gives it a unique atmosphere: lakes, embankments and bridges form the urban landscape, and the old quarter attracts narrow streets and street life. Coming here, you feel the combination of cultures, the fragrances of street cuisine and the constant feeling that each place keeps its history.

Manufactures and facilities

In the list of man-made attractions of Hanoi is a real treasure: the Temple of Literature of the XI century, the Presidential Palace and the elegant St. Joseph’s Cathedral, the historical prison of Hoa Lo (Hanoi Hilton) and the famous Long Bien Bridge. The city center is decorated with the Flag Tower and Badinh Square, and markets and shopping centers like Dong Xuan, Vincom and Garden show the modern side of life. Among the architectural and cultural sites are also the Den Ngoc Sean Temple on Hoan Kiem Lake, the Quan Su and Chua Thay Buddhist temples, the Coloa Fortress and the Vietnam National Congress Center.

Natural attractions and places

The natural attractions of Hanoi and its surroundings are no less impressive: The western Ho Tai Lake, Hoan Kiem Lakes, Bach Trick and Thu Le create green islets in dense urban fabric, and parks and embankments are invited for leisurely walks. Wildlife lovers will find interest in Zuk Phon National Park and Huong Tich Cave in the surrounding area, where nature coexists with legends. Green areas, lakes and hills around the city provide an opportunity to diversify the route with quiet picnics or lake walks.

Build routes and visit interesting places

On our site you can see all these attractions on an interactive map: quickly find objects, read brief descriptions, see photos and pave a convenient route.
