Hanoi is the capital of Vietnam and the political, economic, and cultural center of the North. It boasts a deep history of over 1,000 years and was the capital of the Vietnamese dynasty. While Nha Trang offers the leisurely atmosphere of a resort seaside city and Ho Chi Minh City offers the energy of a rapidly growing city, Hanoi offers the calm charm of Vietnam's thousand-year-old capital.
Hanoi, where tradition and modernity coexist, is centered around the Old Quarter, where old buildings are filled with entertainment, the French Quarter, where French-style luxury buildings are lined up, and Hoan Kiem Lake, a large green space in the center of the city.
