Hanoi

The capital of Vietnam, Hanoi, was built alongside the Red River. The metropolis has kept its ancient architecture – old alleys, huge number of pagodas, shrines and palaces. The amazing French colonial style is very noticeable. You definitely should not miss out on: the Temple of Literature, the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, the One Pillar Pagoda – Chua Mot Cot, the Tran Quoc Pagoda, the Ho Tay lake (- West Lake), the Temple of the Jade Mountain, as well as Ngoc Son and many others.

A great tourist attraction is without a doubt the Water Puppet Show.

A unique presentation of traditional vietnamese art. Specialist puppeteers stand deep in the lake (usually behind a curtain) and with the use of a complex system of bamboo poles and pulleys, they create an illusion of puppets walking on the water surface.
