After playing in Hanoi for four days, taking leisurely strolls and breaks was very relaxing. The attractions are quite concentrated, so even a commando could check off the main sites in one day, but I personally recommend three days for a more comfortable experience. 🏠About the attractions: 1. Top recommendation is Train Street. You need someone to guide you in, probably for safety reasons, and the fee is not more expensive than outside. To see the train, you have to wait for the weekend, and it's more beautiful when the lights are on at dusk. 2. Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. Security checks are required to enter, and many tour groups come here to check in. 3. The Imperial Citadel. The entrance fee is 30,000, and it's not very big inside, but many young ladies are taking photos. The yellow city walls are very photogenic. 4. Hanoi Opera House. It's beautiful for taking photos when the lighting is good. 5. St. Joseph's Cathedral. Suitable for photo ops and check-ins. 6. The Fine Arts Museum and the History Museum are worth a visit if you have time. 7. The famous coffee building + Hoan Kiem Lake. I sat in the rooftop café for a while, and the view was nice. 🚴About transportation: 1. Walking is highly recommended, as the attractions are not far from each other. Just choose where you want to go and use Google Maps to find the location and route. There are many shops and cafés along the road where you can stop by anytime. 2. Riding a motorbike. Grab is very convenient, and motorbikes are cheaper. 3. The double-decker red bus. It's very convenient to cover all the attractions in one go. 4. Pedicab. It's worth trying, but there's too much exhaust on the roads, so the experience is average. 5. To go from the airport to the city center, take bus 86, which costs 45,000 and takes about an hour, much more expensive by taxi. 🍽️About food and drink: 1. Vietnamese pho is very tasty. There are various ingredients like beef, pork, seafood, etc., and the price does not exceed 50,000, with free refills of noodles. 2. Egg coffee. Very fragrant, sweet, and creamy, and when mixed with coffee, it has a caramelized flavor, although the portion is a bit small, it's definitely worth a try. I went to Giang Coffee, which is said to be the original creator, and everyone had a cup in hand. 3. Coffee street. As long as you're in the city, there's a coffee shop every ten steps. You can try any with a Google Maps rating of 4.5, which is very friendly for coffee lovers. I bought Arabica coffee beans to take home, and they also have Moka pots and other items with great value for money. 4. There are many outdoor gear shops around the coffee building, such as The North Face, Patagonia, Salomon, and Arc'teryx. Remember to haggle for clothes, but it's harder to bargain for shoes. All are made in Vietnam, and you can judge their authenticity for yourself. 5. Street food. Juice costs around 25,000 per cup, and there are various noodles and cakes, all at reasonable prices. 🎢Other supplements: 1. There are many motorcycles in Hanoi city, which I find a bit noisy, so after walking for a while, I like to find a relatively quiet café to sit in. 2. You can withdraw money from ATMs, and UnionPay cards are charged a fee. Many shops accept credit cards, which is convenient. 3. When getting change while shopping, make sure to count carefully, as you might be given less by a few hundred thousand haha. 4. It's cheaper to get a SIM card in the city than at the airport. Overall, Hanoi is not expensive, and the architecture and streets are picturesque, suitable for a leisurely three to four-day stroll. If you have extra time, you can spend a day or two in Halong Bay, making it about a week in total.

Hanoi citywalk, wandering through Hanoi alone, the capital of Vietnam located in the northern part, with comfortable winter temperatures and concentrated city attractions. One can complete the journey alone by walking and taking the bus. Accommodation recommendation, I recommend staying around Hoan Kiem Lake, where there are century-old Western-style houses full of historical sense. Attractions are concentrated nearby, transportation is convenient, and in the evening, one can stroll through the old city night market. Costs start from 200 yuan. Transportation, Hanoi's public transportation is quite convenient, and one can take the bus between attractions. Starting price is 1 yuan. Attraction recommendations, in the early morning you can visit the Thirty-Six Old Streets, which are the century-old streets of Hanoi with a concentration of French architecture, filled with a romantic blend of Chinese and Western styles. Following the Thirty-Six Old Streets, you arrive at Train Street, where you can have a cup of coffee while waiting for the century-old train to pass by. At noon, head to Hoan Kiem Lake to visit the Temple of the Jade Mountain, with a cost of about 10 yuan. Continue to take the bus to visit Hanoi's largest Temple of Literature, with a cost of 10 yuan. This is Vietnam's best-preserved and largest-scale Confucian temple, retaining the Chinese architectural style of a hundred years ago. In the afternoon, you can go to the West Lake area, where there is a Tran Quoc Pagoda in the lake, open for free. Nearby, there are also the Imperial Citadel of Thang Long, Ba Dinh Square, and the One Pillar Pagoda to visit together. The Imperial Citadel of Thang Long has an entrance fee of 10 yuan. In the evening, return to the old street area to experience the nightlife of the old streets. You can also visit the Hanoi Cathedral at night, with free admission. Food recommendations include Hanoi's special egg coffee, banana sticky rice, pho, and spring rolls. Recommended places are the Thirty-Six Streets and the old street night market, where there is a concentration of delicious snacks. The average cost starts from 20 yuan.

This time, I would like to introduce the World Heritage Site "Thang Long Ruins" in Hanoi, Vietnam! 🇻🇳 It is close to the center of Hanoi and is easier to get to than other tourist spots! To briefly explain what Thang Long Ruins are, it is the remains of the palace of Thang Long, the capital of Vietnam's first ethnic dynasty! As you will see when you actually go there, it is a castle that is larger than you can imagine! (You can get a little idea by looking at the last photo!) The details are listed below, so be sure to check it out when you go to Hanoi, Vietnam! ==================== •Tourist attraction: Imperial Citadel of Thang Long •Address: 19C Hoàng Diệu, Điện Biên, Ba Đình, Hà Nội 100000, Vietnam •Access: Motorbike •Admission fee: 30,000 VND (approx. ¥180 in Japanese yen) •Atmosphere: Good The currency of Vietnam is the Dong (VND). 1,000 VND = approx. ¥6 ================== #VietnamTrip

The "Doan Gate" of the Thang Long ruins suddenly appears in front of you as you pass through the entrance gate. The heavy presence that shows the dignity of the Vietnamese dynasty will overwhelm the viewer. Moreover, it is the ultimate example of unique Vietnamese architecture. It is wonderful to see a stage with the Doan Gate in the background. It is about a 30-minute walk from Hoan Kiem Lake, and you can also enjoy a stroll around Hanoi. 🚶‍♀️🚶🏻It is a world heritage site that is so interesting that you will want to visit it again and again!!

"Bac Gate" was built in 1805, and there are traces of cannon fire from French ships on the top. It is so big that it is difficult to take a picture. Looking up from below, it looks solid and heavy. There is a simple staircase to climb up. I wonder how people climbed up at that time... On top of the gate is a shrine dedicated to Vietnamese heroes, with a large curved roof and a dignified hero shrine. Even if you go from the ticket booth to the Duan Gate and go further in, you will reach a dead end with a building and a wall, so to see "Bac Gate", you need to go back halfway, exit from the West Gate, and go around the ruins to the other side. Therefore, I think that most visitors to the Thang Long ruins do not visit "Bac Gate". There were many visitors at Duan Gate, but I had the "back" all to myself!! It's worth the effort!! Address: 19C Hoàng Diệu, Điện Biên, Ba Đình, Hà Nội Access: 10 minutes by car from Hoan Kiem Lake Tourist attractions: Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, Ho Chi Minh Museum Hotels: Many in the area Dining & Restaurants: Many in the area Shopping: Many in the area

"Thang Long Ruins Rear Tower" is located about 100m from the entrance of the ruins, passing through Doan Gate. Perhaps because it is located at the back, there are few visitors who come here. The "Rear Tower" is a building that was used as a "waiting room" by the emperor's concubines and female attendants. It is surprising that it is such a magnificent building for a "waiting room"! The exterior is a unique Vietnamese design, and has a charm that reminds you of the time. After climbing a narrow and steep staircase, there are three rooms! The central room is like an altar. The wood carvings are wonderful and the lighting is stylish. It is a recommended hidden spot of the Thang Long Ruins, and is definitely worth seeing.

Thang Long ruins in Hanoi, Vietnam. It is also registered as a World Heritage Site. For a long time, it was the capital of the Vietnamese dynasty, and excavated remains from each era are on display. The grounds are spacious and there are many exhibits, so it is recommended. Duration: 2 hours

#VietnamTravel I think it's a good place to take pictures. There are many people taking pictures. There is a small entrance fee. As of October 2022, it is 30,000 VND. I recommend visiting with a light heart for a walk. Thang Long Imperial Citadel 19C Hoang Diệu, Điện Biên, Ba Dình, Hà Nội 100000 Vietnam

The imperial city located in Hanoi, Vietnam, where many Vietnamese dynasties established their capitals. According to Wikipedia, Thang Long Imperial City is a complex of cultural buildings built by the Ly Dynasty, and then expanded to varying degrees by the Tran Dynasty, Hou Le Dynasty and finally the Nguyen Dynasty. The ruins roughly coincide with today’s Imperial City of Hanoi. In 2010, the central part of Thang Long Imperial City was included in the World Heritage List. Also, every graduation season here, many student groups come to take graduation photos. The photography here is very retro. #local游

An impressive Imperial Citadel and UNESCO World Heritage listed site, located within walking distance of Da Binh Square and the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. Steeped in history… both imperial and modern. There are bunkers on the site too which were used in the 1960s and 70s which are my personal highlight of the site. It is worth the visit here alone to see these. #history #museum #happynewyear

The area of Shenglong Huangcheng City is about 18,400 square meters. It is concentrated in the archaeological area of No. 18 Huangyao Road in Hanoi and the ancient city of Hanoi. It is the intersection of Vietnamese sculpture art, architectural art, construction technology, urban planning and landscaping art. It is the most typical and historical monument in Vietnam. The millennium has carved a deep mark on the city of Thang Long, but as time goes by, there are few remains on the ground of the Dragon City. The Jingtian Temple, which was once located in the center of the forbidden city, is now a broken wall. Only the green dragon railings carved on both sides of the steps are still intact. Walking along the Huangcheng District for a week, the fragrance of the flowers and the antiques of the Imperial City are intertwined.

The Thang Long Imperial Citadel, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is located in Ba Dinh District, Hanoi, not far from Hoan Kiem Lake in the old city center. During the Jiaozhi period, it was a fortress in the Red River Delta. After the independence of the Dai Viet Kingdom, it gradually became the center of political power, with a history of nearly a thousand years through the four dynasties of Ly, Tran, Le, and Nguyen. Currently, only a few buildings on the central axis of the imperial city remain, most of which were restored in the late Nguyen Dynasty, when Vietnam was already colonized by France. The name Thang Long originated from the Ly Dynasty a thousand years ago. The image of the dragon was influenced by the Han culture in the north, so much so that stone dragons were carved on both sides of the steps of the main hall, and many dragon-related objects are displayed in the main hall museum. Of course, the essence of Confucianism in Han culture has also penetrated into the education of the Vietnamese people. They also had the imperial examination system, and the Temple of Literature, or the Imperial Academy, is located near the imperial city.

This is an imperial castle complex where 11th century architecture and sculptures, such as towers and stone dragons, remain. The grounds are quite large and not crowded, so I was able to take my time looking around while learning about Vietnamese history👍️ It is close to the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, so I recommend visiting both.
