4 days in Hanoi Itinerary

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.

Bring the kids along to Old Quarter and Hoa Lo Prison. Shop till you drop at 54 Traditions Gallery and The Bookworm Hanoi. There's much more to do: admire the masterpieces at Fine Arts Museum (Bao Tang My Thuat), let your taste buds guide you at a local gastronomic tour, see the interesting displays at Vietnamese Women's Museum, and stop by Indigo Store.

Wrap up your sightseeing on the 5th (Mon) early enough to travel back home.
