Hanoi has been emerging as a prime tourist destination ever since the Vietnamese government opened it up to the outside world several years ago.
Spend the day in this charming city with its eclectic mix of French, Chinese and Southeast Asian influences in everything from the food to the architecture. The capital of Vietnam, Hanoi is rapidly making up for time lost after the ravages of war. The layers of history will reveal periods of different nationality occupation and offer glimpses into the resilience of these proud people.
Your journey begins as you are picked up from port for a comfortable, scenic ride to the capital city of Hanoi. Enjoy an overview of Hanoi as you ride along Thanh Nien Boulevard, passing Ho Chi Minh Complex and Ba Dinh Central Square to take photos. At the Temple of Literature, originally the site of the country’s first university, you will see stone tablets from old successful Vietnamese scholars. Learn about Confucianism, the revered ideology that dictated Vietnamese education and culture.
After a delicious lunch of typical Vietnamese fare you will continue to Ngoc Son Temple, or the Temple of the Jade Mountain, located on Hoan Kiem Lake. Keep out your camera for a shot of the perennially photographed red wooden Huc Bridge, then take a tour of the Old Quarter via an electric car to experience local life in this chaotic maze of 13th-century streets full of vendors, artists and people practicing tai chi.
