Part 2: Hanoi Hidden Gems: (2,5 hours)

We are NOT visiting Hai Ba Trung temple but we just indicate the area of Hanoi where we take you to and expose the hidden gems of Hanoi, like a living museum about the day in the life of Hanoi People.

Explore the parts-unknown of Hanoi by riding through the maze of zigzagging backstreet and narrow alleyways and markets. Diving into the rivers of motorbikes and Hanoi street symphony. Traveling with all your senses heightened: Watching, Hearing, Touching, Tasting and smiling. Experiencing the GOOD, the BAD, and the WEIRD of the city as it is what it is. Experiencing different slides of life behind the scene, the hidden part of the iceberg. Meeting people where they live, work, learn and pray. Building personal connections and culture exchanges.

*Note: Hai Ba Trung Temple is the area where we visit, so you could easily get the idea about the part of Hanoi that we visit, NOT necessary to come in more Temple on the trip.

Long Biên Bridge is the oldest iron bridge in Vietnam, built in 1889 by French colonial, was imbued with national identity even though it was a modern architectural heritage at that time, as the French gave it the shape that resembles a dragon flying over the Red River, which is associated with the cultural symbol of Hà Nội. A short walk here gives you a great angle of Hanoi for photos and we also take you to the countryside of Hanoi to explore the peaceful and tranquil villages and farms around the city.Read moreMore about Long Bien Bridge
