Hanoi & Ha Long Bay


Hanoi is the flagship of Vietnamese heritage, where ancient traditions and modern life harmoniously coexist. Culture, leisure, gastronomy and wonderful places: the capital city offers countless exciting experiences. Walk through the bustling shopping streets of the mythical Old Quarter and enjoy typical Vietnamese cuisine. Make sure to visit the peaceful and enchanting Ho Kiem Lake and the Ho Chi Minh Complex, a strong symbol of Vietnam’s history.

A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Ha Long Bay is one of the most magnificent and breathtaking spots of the world. Periods of climatic change over millions of years have resulted in the Bay’s stunning landscape. More than 1,600 amazing limestone rocks that come in a variety of sizes and shapes rise spectacularly from the sea. Most are topped with thick jungle-like vegetation and some of them are hollow, with enormous caves that can be visited by boat.
