Sightseeing
HOAN KIEM LAKE
The lake is considered the center of Hanoi not only physically but also symbolically.
Peaceful and quiet, the lake surrounds Ngoc Son Temple, a temple sitting in the center on a small island. The temple was built in commemoration of the 13th century military leader Tran Hung Dao who was renowned for his bravery in the battle against the Yuan Dynasty. The island on which the temple is built is known as Jade Island and is accessible by the iconic Huc Bridge or Rising Sun Bridge which is a charming scarlet-painted wooden bridge of classical Vietnamese design.
Hoan Kiem Lake is at the center of Old Quarter, so you can easily walk to the Night Market from here.

Located on a small peninsula on the East side of West Lake, Tran Quoc Pagoda is regarded as the most ancient pagoda in Hanoi with its history line of more than 1,500 years.

Till the 15th century, during King Le Thai Tong reign, it was renamed to “An Quoc”, which means a peaceful country.
The architecture of this Buddhist center is a subtle combination between the solemn and beautiful landscape on the peaceful and quiet ambiance of West Lake’s surface.
