It might take time to put down a complete list of the best options for sightseeing destinations in Southeast Asia. However, the work will surely bring joy since the region offers everything from exploring ancient forests to relaxing on unspoiled beaches with rainbow lakes and breathtaking panoramas, even remote areas to enjoy some peaceful time and get away from the crowd.
Hanoi has now become one of the favourite spots in Vietnam for visitors and for those who love to learn thoroughly about Vietnamese culture. The capital is the place where tradition, ancient and contemplative elements are well blended with modern and vibrant livelihood. Hanoi is a home of many historical relics such as the Temple of Literature-Quoc Tu Giam - Vietnam’s first university and educated hundreds of well-known scholars and mandarins; Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, serves as the resting place of Vietnamese revolutionary leader - President Ho Chi Minh.
In addition to these 2 famous spots above, Hanoi also serves as a shopping hub. The old quarter, which consists of 36 streets, is where visitors can shop for a souvenir or simply good photo opportunities and explore the old town. Other famous places to visit in Hanoi include: Thang Long Imperial Citadel, Hoa Lo Prison Relic, Grand Opera House, West Lake, Hoan Kiem Lake, One Pillar Pagoda, etc.
