Review:
Yanisa: ”This is place remaining soul and peaceful of Hanoi, also you can find some images of Ancient Old Hanoi.
Walking or doing a cyclo tour 1 hour along this bank of lake and see more around old streets of Hanoi can not be more pleasure ! and for this tour arranged well, give some suggestion to this agent : Impressive Travel Vietnam, Vietnam tour, Bammboo. All of them are well, but Impressive Travel Vietnam in all trusted as the best. Cheer, and have nice times in Hanoi, like we did ! Hoan Kiem lake you should not miss seeing”
SEA08: ”The only place I ever had anything stolen in Hanoi, my dear sandals.
A wonderful place to stroll during the morning, have a coffee in the afternoon, watch the traffic at night, and take off your shoes to swing your feet over the water before the sun comes up. Kind of awesome looking back, chasing a couple locals around the lake for my shoes while the old people are starting to get ready for tai chi, as my friends laugh their butts off. I miss when Hanoi was a great unknown to me and after dealing with the 5 stages of grief about my wonderful shoes is one of my fondest memories. The drive home was fun but trying to buy size 46 (11) sucks on shoe street.”
Aiimii: ”Really nice place, especially at night with all the lights and lanterns. Even if the streets are not far away, you feel quite relaxed walking along the lake. Can be crowded at times, but in overall, this is THE place to have a small walk at night.”
