About Travel to Hanoi

Hanoi is the capital city of Vietnam with a population of nearly 9 million people. Hanoi is also Vietnam’s most visited city, with many tourists coming to the city on route to many of Vietnam’s other popular destinations including Ha Long Bay, Sapa and Ninh Binh Province.

Tourism in Hanoi

Visitor numbers to Hanoi are growing and the city is becoming increasingly crowded with tourists, and prices are increasing. Nonetheless, Hanoi still represents excellent value for money and there are many places of genuine interest to visit in the city.

We recommend that visitors to Hanoi undertake some research about where to stay and where to visit before arriving in the city. Hanoi is a large city (3,359.84 square kilometres), however, most of the popular places to visit are all grouped fairly close together in 3 of the city’s 12 urban districts: Hoan Kiem, Ba Dinh and Tay Ho. It is possible to walk between the various visitor attractions in these three areas, but most leisure visitors will take taxis to travel between the districts as it’s often much too hot to comfortably walk long distances in Hanoi.

Hoan Kiem District (Hanoi Old Quarter)

Hoan Kiem District is often referred to as Hanoi’s ‘Old Quarter’. This is the part of the city where the majority of the international visitors to Hanoi stay. There are lots of hotels, and lots of bars and restaurants, many of which are focused on catering to foreign tourists and the prices charged often reflect that.

One of the things that makes Hoah Kiem District so popular is the French colonial era architecture and narrow streets bustling with life. There are also lots of places of interest you can easily walk to in the Old Quarter:

• Hoan Kiem Lake
• Hanoi Opera House
• St Joseph’s Cathedral
• Long Bien Bridge

Ba Dinh District

Ba Dinh District isn’t a part of the city where many visitors choose to stay overnight, but it does contain some of Hanoi’s most significant buildings and monuments. Most of these attractions are clustered around Ba Dinh Square, including:

• Vietnam’s parliament building
• Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum
• One Pillar Pagoda
• Presidential Palace
• Ho Chi Minh Museum

One significant attraction in Da Dinh District which is not on Ba Dinh Square is the Imperial Citadel of Thang Long. The Imperial Citadel was the main residence of Vietnam’s royal family before they moved their capital to Hue in the 19th Century.

Tay Ho District (West Lake)

Tay Ho District encompasses the large and picturesque West Lake. Tay Ho is a part of the city where many wealthier international tourists choose to stay, and also it’s a popular part of the city for longer term foreign residents. Some of Hanoi’s best hotels, including the InterContinental Hanoi Westlake and the Sheraton Hanoi Hotel, are located on the northern edge of West Lake.

The most famous visitor attraction in Tay Hao District is Tran Quoc Pagoda. Tran Quoc Pagoda features an attractive pagoda and a lakeside garden area, and is generally considered to be the most attractive temple in the city.

Close to Tran Quoc Pagoda is another temple worth visiting, Quan Thanh Temple. Quan Thanh Temple was founded in the 13th Century and features some interesting Taoist shrines. According to local belief, Quan Thanh Temple is one of the city’s four sacred temples each located on a different side of the city. Quan Thanh Temple protects the north of the city. The other three temples are believed to protect the east, west and south of the city.
