The capital of Vietnam, Hanoi has bounded back from the effects of war, and today serves as a bustling commercial and cultural hub bursting at the seams.

Do some cultural sightseeing at Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and Hoa Lo Prison. The adventure continues: explore the activities along Lake of the Restored Sword (Hoan Kiem Lake), indulge in some culinary diversions at a local gastronomic tour, see the interesting displays at Vietnamese Women's Museum, and brush up on your military savvy at Vietnam Military History Museum.
