Ha Noi
The city is divided into districts, many of which take their name from a lake within the district's boundaries. Each district has its own charms.Perhaps the most interesting district, is that of Hoan Kiem. At its center is Ho Hoan Kiem (Lake of the Restored Sword). A broad path encircles the lake, attracting residents to its shores throughout the day. At dawn you'll find young and old walking, jogging, practicing Tai Chi and playing badminton. After dark, young couples walk hand-in-hand or seek privacy under the trees and on the numerous park benches at the water's edge.
To the north and west of the lake is Hanoi's famed old quarter with
its confusing maze of narrow cobblestoned streets. Home to numerous
guest houses, mini-hotels, art galleries, restaurants and shops, the
old quarter is worth a day of aimless wandering and discovery. Many
visitors, particularly backpackers, choose this area as their base in
Hanoi.
South and east of the lake, the wide tree-lined
boulevards of the old French quarter offer a stark contrast to the
confusion of the old quarter. The French colonial influence, obvious
throughout the city, is particularly evident here. Many colonial villas
are now home to embassies, upscale hotels and restaurants.
Those spending more than a couple of days in Hanoi will want to explore other areas of the city as well. Ba Dinh District, west of Hoan Kiem, is the up-and-coming business center and home to the posh Hanoi Daewoo Hotel. Scenic Ho Tay District to the north is dominated by Ho Tay (South Lake) and boasts numerous historic sites and temples.
Hanoi awakes early, with activity in the parks beginning before sunrise and winding down by 7 a.m. Most offices, stores and museums open around 7:30 am, closing for lunch between 11 and 1, and reopening again until 5 p.m. Most restaurants stop serving at10 p.m.
Hanoi has four distinct seasons. Winters can actually be quite chilly; although snow is foreign to Hanoi residents. Summers are hot and rainy. Probably the best time to visit is spring and fall.
