I’m sure that you will never forget if you have a chance to visit Hanoi. It is not only known as the capital of Vietnam but also very famous with many great places, food as well as the Hanoi people. The quintessential Hanoi neighborhood and the oldest area in town, the Old Quarter is a maze of streets dating back to the 13th century. The Old Quarter’s Communal Houses were set up by guilds as small temples to honor a local god – the Bach Ma, or White Horse, who represents the city itself. Another sightseeing highlight is the Temple of Literature — a sanctuary of Confucianism and Vietnam’s seat of learning for almost a thousand years. Hanoi is the best place to experience traditional Vietnamese arts such as opera, theater, and water puppetry shows that feature traditional music and depict Vietnamese folklore and myths. The city also has a variety of pleasant little watering holes. For a vivid taste of local street life, Hanoi style, pull up a little plastic squat stool on a street corner or in one of the many cozy, open-air bars serving the local brew bia-hoi. It’s hard to have a bad meal in Hanoi. Hanoi’s finest local food is served at small, one-dish restaurants, usually just open-air joints at street-side, where you might wonder why a line is snaking out the door. The ubiquitous pho — noodle soup served with slices of beef or chicken, fresh bean sprouts and condiments — can be found anywhere. And don’t miss cha ca, Hanoi’s famed spicy fish fry-up. Dozens of small, serene lakes dotted about Hanoi offer transport to tranquility amid the city bustle. In the morning, the circumference walkway encircling Hoan Kiem Lake becomes a training camp, with locals working up a sweat performing tai chi or calisthenics. Otherwise, walking is the best way to tour the winding passages of the Old Quarter. More intrepid souls bike around town to beat the chaotic traffic — most hotels have a cycle to rent.

One of the dishes that I am most impressed with in Hanoi is “Phở Hà Nội”. Phở Hà Nội” appeared in Hanoi from the early 20th century. “Phở Hà Nội” is a long-standing traditional dish with its own flavor of the North. The most noticeable difference between “Phở Hà Nội” and “Phở” in the South is that the pho is flatter and bigger, and at the same time, some places will eat pho with quarts. Hanoi tourists can choose “Phở gà”, “Phở bò” depending on their eating preferences. A bowl of “Phở” includes: broth, noodle soup, seasonings such as pepper, green onion, lemon slice, chili… The broth of pho is made from the broth of beef bones: lump bones, tubular bones, and clavicle bones. Pho is made from rice flour. Meat to make pho is mainly beef and chicken. A bowl of “Phở Hà Nội” costs from 25000 to 70000 VND, is reasonably priced. With the bold flavor of Northern dishes, Pho Hanoi will always be chosen by diners every time they come to this land of a thousand years of culture.
