About Travel to Hanoi
Hanoi is the capital of Vietnam, and it’s a large and busy city with around 4 million people living in the city centre and a further 4 million people within the wider metropolitan area. Hanoi is also a very old city. Although the city was officially established in the early 11th Century, archaeological finds and written records suggest people have been living in Hanoi for 3,000 to 4,000 years.
Staying Overnight in Hanoi
The majority of leisure visitors to Hanoi, particularly foreign visitors, choose to stay in a hotel located in Hoan Kiem District which is better known internationally as the ‘Old Quarter’. There are lots of hotels in Hanoi located in other parts of the city, for example some of the city’s top hotels are located to the north of Hoan Kiem on the edge of West Lake, however, the highest concentration of tourist accommodation in Hanoi is in the Old Quarter.
Hanoi’s Old Quarter is very popular with leisure visitors for a number of reasons. Foremost of which are the historic buildings, many with European style architectural features, densely packed together on narrow streets teeming with life. It’s an attractive and atmospheric part of the city. The Old Quarter also has several well known visitor attractions and is close to many of the city’s other famous tourist attractions.

Hanoi has several clusters of tourist attractions. A good strategy for visiting these attractions is to take a taxi to a particular location, visit the different sites within each cluster, and then to take another taxi to a different location, and once again set out on foot exploring the points of interest in that part of the city.
