Founded over 1000 years ago, Vietnam’s capital city is inconceivably rich in history. Locales like the rambling streets of the Old Quarter, the tree-lined lanes and colonial facades like the Hanoi Opera House, the hallowed Temple of Literature and the iconic Turtle Tower will surely transport you seamlessly back in time. However, today’s Hanoi is about much more than the past. The ancient city has been invigorated with modern cafes, world-class restaurants, and cool art galleries. When the sun goes down, you also have your pick of enticing watering holes, from sophisticated rooftop bars to buzzing local pubs serving draught bia hơi. Cheers!
