There is so much more to Hanoi than meets the eye, or the tourists eye on a map of the city. Our guide Alex was fantastic! His knowledge and the background details he provided along the way made the locations and historic sites speak. From our hotel in the Old Quarter we went to the complex of Ho Chi Minh, or as the locals will say 'Uncle Ho'. We learnt a lot about his later life and how he lived. Next, coffee. Don't be scared. Try something. Then we went to the Temple of Literature and learnt how difficult it was to study here back in the day and how the ancient teachings affected the students lives. Next lunch, traditional Vietnamese style with rice and a lot of different portions, either of meat or vegetables and soup or dipping sauces. My husband and I both enjoyed our meal. We then went to Hoa Lu Prison or the 'Hanoi Hilton and saw the conflicts including the Vietnam War from the Vietnamese perspective. Then we chose to add in train Street where on a very hot and humid day, we could enjoy a cold beverage and be blown away by the close proximity of the local train travelling though. Then Alex took us to the Women's Museum. What a wonderfully curated museum. The lives of the local women over the years have been celebrated beautifully. After a long day, in which we learnt so much, we were dropped back at our hotel. Thank you so much Alex for colouring in for us the picture of Vietnamese history. It will be unforgettable. Cảm ơn Alex and best wishes for your life ahead.
