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.

Your day by day itinerary now includes Lotte Observation Deck, Hanoi Free Tour Guides - Private Tours and Thang Long Water Puppet. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Fine Arts Museum (Bao Tang My Thuat) and Long Bien Bridge. Get some cultural insight at Old Quarter and Hoa Lo Prison. There's still lots to do: steep yourself in history at Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, explore the activities along Lake of the Restored Sword (Hoan Kiem Lake), contemplate in the serene atmosphere at One Pillar Pagoda, and don't miss a visit to Temple of Literature & National University.
