Holidays in Hanoi
Hanoi holidays boast many colonial and ancient architectural features, particularly in the fascinating warren of streets known as the Old Quarter and in the numerous pagodas, lakes and parks which make of the capital of Vietnam a unique gem. Popular Hanoi holiday sights include the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, the One-Pillar Pagoda, Ngoc Son Temple and Vietnam's first University, and the Temple of Literature. In complete contrast with Ho Chi Minh City, French influence here can be perceived in the tree-lined boulevards, cafes and countless restaurants offering a fabulous fusion of flavours. The UNESCO World Heritage site of Halong Bay and the mountain resort of Sapa are also within easy reach.
