About Hanoi

Hanoi, de hoofdstad van Vietnam, mengt tempels aan het meer, Franse koloniale boulevards en een Oude Wijk vol straatvoedsel en scooters in elk steegje.

De smalle straten van de Oude Wijk, die vroeger elk aan één ambacht waren gewijd, liggen net ten noorden van het Hoan Kiem-meer, waar de rode Huc-brug naar de Tempel van de Jaden Berg leidt. Wandel bij zonsopgang langs het water om tai chi te zien, of na het donker, wanneer de stoepen vollopen met eetstalletjes en lage plastic krukjes.
