Taking your backpack and join FREE HANOI TOUR now!
For many people, Hanoi is a troublemaker who makes them be in struggle with their job, their overcome. The old beauty of Hanoi is also forgotten. A distant friend of mine, intending to go to Hanoi, asked, “What is it out of Hanoi?” I want to say, “Hanoi is very attractive, just go ahead and feel it.” How? With my free Hanoi tour.
1. Banh Mi Dan To – The most unique thing in my free Hanoi tour.
Actually, there are a lot of Banh Mi brands and popular stalls in Hanoi. However, maybe only Banh Mi Dan To keeps its own, different from many others. Banh Mi Dan To open from 3:00 am – 8:00 am, mainly for employees, so its price is very reasonable, ranging from 15,000 vnd to 20,000 vnd (~ $1). The owner is a middle-aged couple. Hanoian call it a “shop” but actually a sales trolley, people mostly buy and take away.
Especially, ingredients of the restaurant are very special. All ingredients such as eggs, sausages, pate are mixed on a pan and sandwiched with hot and crunchy bread, without dividing like other shops. The chili sauce in the restaurant is also homemade, spicy taste is different, color is very beautiful and bread is delicious. My friend did not want to eat, but when she ate it, she didn’t expect it was good like that.
2. Coffee at No. 39, Ta Hien Street.
After having breakfast, I took my friend to try Hanoi coffee. Watching the peaceful beauty that seems to be defeated by the economic whirlwind. But no! That hidden beauty of Hanoi is just shown for who live slowly in this busy capital. When coming to Ta Hien, many people think of beer, but no one knows that this No. 39 Coffee is a amazing greatness. This coffee shop open very early, most of its customers are uncle or old ladies who went to exercise early and drink a morning cup of coffee.
There are many options for you, not just coffee. Copper drinks cost only 18,000 VND (< $1). My friend drank a cup of iced milk coffee, coffee flavor mixed with a wonderful milk flavor. Sipping a cup of coffee, watching the road still empty. The neighborhood is almost quiet, the peaceful beauty of Hanoi is here.
3. Visiting around Sword Lake.
As a familiar routine when coming to Hanoi, you will not be able to ignore to admire Sword Lake. With people who are attached to this land, Sword Lake is like an old man, clear blue water, rows of ancient trees shining down. It has become a part of daily life of Hanoi people.
Then, we walked around Sword Lake’s shore, people were running exercise, fan dance performances, old ladies’ exercises became an unique “specialty” of this Lake area. Afterward, sunlight began to pour down the street, honey yellow of the sun made pruning flowers around Sword Lake suddenly become full of energy to welcome a new day.
Around the Lake is mobile cars selling goods. Colorful cars parked and don’t think it’s boring. Just a photographer has this mind, you will have a pose for life. My friend said, there is nothing nice in the background. But then she laughed when I shoot for her beautiful photos with very simple backgrounds.
4. Place embraces the whole Hanoi.
In order to see Hanoi from a very high place, many people choose high-rise cafes. However, we chose roof of an apartment building to see Hanoi from a very different angle. Hanoi is now gradually changing, high-rise buildings grow more, obscuring the previous buildings. The wind blew, the blue clouds hung in the sky.
If you feel tired of life pressure. These places are for you, give you a calm mind. Hanoi always contains safe shelters, welcomes tired people, protects them.
