The Best Places in Hanoi and Beyond!

🇻🇳 Vietnam is a beautiful country filled with rich history. Here are some of my favorite places to visit in Vietnam!

🌊 Experience the jaw-dropping beauty of Halong Bay! There are various ways you can choose to enjoy this unique geography consisting of limestone islands (that look more like mountains) and gorgeous waters. I chose to experience it via a day cruise and had an amazing time!

🛤️ Hanoi Train Street is a picturesque place with many photo opportunities. You can walk along the tracks throughout your visit, taking in the quaint sights around you. Pop into one of the local cafes that line the street for a cup of tea and a quick snack.

🍊 Tran Quoc Pagoda is the oldest Buddhist temple in Hanoi, having been built in the sixth century. Around the pagoda, which holds important monk's ashes, citrus trees are grown, giving the pagoda a nice atmosphere when paired with the water it sits on.

📚 The Temple of Literature is a temple dedicated to Confucious in Hanoi, Vietnam. This temple was built in 1070 and served as the Imperial Academy, Vietnam's first university.
