The Flag Tower of Hanoi (Vietnamese: Cột cờ Hà Nội) is a tower in Hanoi, Vietnam, which is one of the symbols of the city and once a part of the Hanoi Citadel, a World Heritage Site. Its height is 33.4 m (41 m with the flag).
The tower was built in 1812 during the Nguyen dynasty as an observation post to the Hanoi Citadel. Unlike many other structures in Hanoi, it was not destroyed during the French invasion (1896-1897), and was continuously used as a military post. It is now located in the Vietnam Military History Museum.
Cột cờ is composed of three tiers and a pyramid-shaped tower with a spiral staircase leading to the top inside it. The first tier is 42.5 m wide and 3.1 m high; the second - 25 m wide and 3.7 m high and the third - 12.8 m wide and 5.1 m high. The second tier has four doors. The words "Nghênh Húc" (English: "To welcome dawn's sunlight") are inscribed on the eastern door; the words "Hồi Quang" ("To reflect light") - on the western door and "Hướng Minh" ("Directed to the sunlight") - on the southern door. The tower is lighted by 36 flower-shaped and 6 fan-shaped windows. The National Flag of Vietnam is on top of the tower.

The West Lake is the biggest freshwater lake of northwest center of
Hanoi. If you have been to the Sword lake, you may notice that the
West Lake is way much bigger than the Sword Lake. You can walk
around the Sword Lake, but I can say for sure it is almost impossible to
do the same with this lake as its shore length is estimated 17 km. But
you can rest assured that there’s still a way for you tour around this
lake. Electronic cars are always there ready to provide you with a trip,
which is expected to last for at least 1 hour. You may spot many
electronic cars in different countries in the world, but those in Vietnam
are probably the most special of its kind. Traveling around the lake in a
car, sightseeing and enjoying the cool wind blowing over your face will
sure be a memorable experience you hardly ever have anywhere else.
West Lake is majestic in all seasons, especially in summer when its water
reflects purple and red flamboyant trees. Every day, from dawn till
dusk, local people in Hanoi walk along its bank to breathe some fresh
air and enjoy the picturesque sights. In the evening, West Lake is a
place for friends and lovers to meet, socialize and have a good time
together. Some people love to relax in a small café by the lake,
enjoying the breeze over a cup of coffee. Some go to a restaurant to
eat West Lake’s famous crepes with shrimp. Others board a luxury
boat and sail around the lake.

This pagoda was originally constructed in the 6 th century
during the reign of Emperor Ly Nam De, thus giving it an age of
more than 1 450 years. It is regarded as one of the most ancient pagodas in Vietnam. Among the oldest pagoda ever existing in Vietnam, this pagoda ranks second, just below Dau
temple in Bac Ninh province (which is estimated 2000 years old).
When founded, the pagoda was named Khai Quoc,
which can be translated as Found the nation. Later on, under
Le dynasty ( the following dynasty of Ly ), emperor Le Thai
Tong changed it into An Quoc , which means Secure the
Nation. Eventually , the pagoda was renamed Tran Quoc
(Protect the Nation) under the reign of emperor Le Than Tong.
Since then, its name remains unchanged until nowadays.
The pagoda was initially situated on the shores of
Red River. However, when confronting the river’s
encroachment, the pagoda was relocated on a small islet called
Kim Ngu ( Golden Fish islet ). Because this islet was situated in
the middle of West Lake, there was almost no other possible
ways to reach the pagoda but sailing a boat. Not long after that,
a dam called Cổ Ngư ( Thanh Nien street at present ) was
constructed, dividing the West Lake into two parts, the bigger
part is still called West Lake whereas the other smaller one is
known as Truc Bach Lake. After the dam construction was
completed, the villagers started building a bridge and a
causeway which linked the islet and the dam in order to provide
a way to enter the pagoda.

The Imperial Citadel of Thăng Long is a complex of historic imperial buildings located in the centre of Hanoi, Vietnam. It is also known as Hanoi Citadel.
The royal enclosure was first built during the Lý dynasty (1010) and subsequently expanded by the Trần, Lê and finally the Nguyễn dynasty. It remained the seat of the Vietnamese court until 1810, when the Nguyễn dynasty chose to move the capital to Huế. The ruins roughly coincide with the Hanoi Citadel today.
The royal palaces and most of the structures in Thăng Long were in varying states of disrepair by the late 19th century with the upheaval of the French conquest of Hanoi. By the 20th century many of the remaining structures were torn down. Only in the 21st century are the ruin foundations of Thăng Long Imperial City systematically excavated.
In mid-1945 the Citadel was used by the Imperial Japanese Army to imprison over 4000 French colonial soldiers captured during the Japanese coup d'état in French Indochina in March 1945.
The central sector of the imperial citadel was listed in UNESCO's World Heritage Site on July 31, 2010 at its session in Brazil, as "The Central Sector of the Imperial Citadel of Thăng Long – Hanoi"
Nowadays, this place gradually becomes a beautiful wedding photography place for couples.

The One Pillar Pagoda is a historic Buddhist temple in Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. It is regarded alongside the Perfume Temple, as one of Vietnam's two most iconic temples.
The temple was built by Emperor Lý Thái Tông, who ruled from 1028 to 1054. According to the court records, Lý Thái Tông was childless and dreamt that he met the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, who handed him a baby son while seated on a lotus flower. Lý Thái Tông then married a peasant girl that he had met and she bore him a son. The emperor constructed the temple in gratitude for this in 1049, having been told by a monk named Thiền Tuệ to build the temple, by erecting a pillar in the middle of a lotus pond, similar to the one he saw in the dream.
The temple was located in what was then the Tây Cấm Garden in Thạch Bảo, Vĩnh Thuận district in the capital Thăng Long (now known as Hanoi). Before the pagoda was opened, prayers were held for the longevity of the monarch. During the Lý Dynasty era, the temple was the site of an annual royal ceremony on the occasion of Vesak, the birthday of Gautama Buddha. A Buddha-bathing ceremony was held annually by the monarch, and it attracted monks and laymen alike to the ceremony. The monarch would then free a bird, which was followed by the people.
The temple was renovated in 1105 by Emperor Lý Nhân Tông and a bell was cast and an installation was attempted in 1109. However, the bell, which was regarded as one of the four major capital works of Vietnam at the time, was much too large and heavy, and could not be installed. Since it could not be tolled while left on the ground, it was moved into the countryside and deposited in farmland adjacent to Nhất Trụ Temple. This land was widely inhabited by turtles, so the bell came to be known as Quy Điền chung, which means Bell of the Turtle Farmland. At the start of the 15th century, Vietnam was invaded and occupied by the Ming Dynasty. In 1426, the future Emperor Lê Lợi attacked and dispersed the Chinese forces, and while the Ming were in retreat and low on weapons, their commanding general ordered that the bell be smelted, so that the copper could be used for manufacturing weaponry.
The temple is built of wood on a single stone pillar 1.25 m in diameter and 4 m in height, and it is designed to resemble a lotus blossom, which is a Buddhist symbol of purity, since a lotus blossoms in a muddy pond. In 1954, the French Union forces destroyed the pagoda before withdrawing from Vietnam after the First Indochina War. It was rebuilt afterwards.
A replica was built in Thủ Đức in Saigon in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

• Hanoi Opera House (Tràng Tiền Street)
The Hanoi Opera House, or the Grand Opera House is an opera house in central Hanoi, Vietnam. It was erected by the French colonial administration between 1901 and 1911.
t was modeled on the Palais Garnier, the older of Paris's two opera houses, and is considered to be one of the architectural landmarks of Hanoi. After the departure of the French the opera house became the scene for several political events.[1] as well as the scene of street fighting during the fight for Hanoi.
The Hanoi Opera House provides the names for the neighboring Hilton Hanoi Opera Hotel which opened in 1999, as well as for the MGallery Hotel de l'Opera Hanoi, which opened in 2011. For historical reasons associated with the Vietnam war, the Hilton Hanoi Opera Hotel was not named the Hanoi Hilton.
The opera house is described in the memoirs of Blanche Arral who performed in the new Hanoi Opera House in 1902 while waiting for the 1902 Exposition of Hanoi to open.[2] The opera had depended on touring artists performing French and Italian repertoire during the colonial period for a mainly French audience. The National Ballet is also part of the Opera House company and stages Western classics such as Swan Lake as well as traditional and modern Vietnamese dance productions.

Vietnam was under French rule from 1887-1954, with the French having a major impact on the streetscape of Hanoi.

If the glut of information sometimes feels repetitive, for visual stimulation there is a stunning collection of propaganda posters, as well as costumes, tribal basketware and fabric motifs from Vietnam’s ethnic minority groups. Check the website for special exhibitions.
