What to see in Hanoi

Head to the Old Quarter where ancient buildings dating back to the 11th century blend with grand French colonial palaces, pagodas and temples. The oldest temple in Hanoi is believed to be the Bach Ma Temple and was built by King Ly Thai To to commemorate a white horse which led him to the site where he built the city walls.

For a beautiful example of the traditional houses in the Old Quarter, visit 87 Ma May, a restored 19th century house with a lovely courtyard. One of the most interesting houses in the Old Quarter is the Memorial House, a former Merchants house with fine décor where you can buy some traditional Vietnamese crafts.

Situated on an island on Hoan Kiem Lake is Hanoi’s most popular temple Ngoc Son Temple which is accessed by crossing the Huc Bridge from the shore and boasts a beautiful and tranquil setting. A visit to the World Heritage listed Halong Bay is also recommended.

This stunning bay with turquoise seas and dotted with over 2000 limestone islands is perfect for cruising onboard a traditional Chinese Junk boat where you can explore the caves and grottos and enjoy a refreshing swim.
