Moments of Hanoi and Ha Long 🇻🇳
Come to Vietnam for egg coffee, ancient streets full of scooters, and limestone cliffs rising from emerald waters...
I arrived in Hanoi in early December. The air was crisp and cool, and the streets were buzzing with life.
[1. Transportation]
From Noi Bai Airport, I took a shuttle (40,000 VND) or Grab (~250k). To Ha Long, I booked a tour bus (2.5h drive).
[2. Attractions]
I wandered the Old Quarter, visited the Temple of Literature, and walked around Hoan Kiem Lake. The Ha Long cruise was the highlight — kayaking, seafood lunch, and watching sunset over the bay.
[3. Food]
Pho, bun cha, banh mi, and ca phe trung — Vietnamese food is light but flavorful.
Such a peaceful, poetic place 🌿
