Kate Ford – journalist of NZ Herald wrote: “Rich in history, chaotic charm and delicious cuisine, you can`t go wrong when choosing between Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi for a Vietnam trip”.
About Hanoi – the Vietnam’s capital, New Zealand journalist advices readers to visit the Old Quarter - 36 clogged streets that form the arteries to Hanoi's heart. “Shops' wares burst on to the footpath and compete for real estate with motorbikes. People sell everything from doughnuts to shoe-shining services to counterfeit books.The weekend night markets are a must-visit. Much of the Old Quarter is closed to vehicles as street performers, food stalls and markets take over the roads.”

“You really don't need to spend much to get a delicious meal in Hanoi. Try another bun cha bowl at Bun Cha Dac Kim, or wedge into a spare seat at Pho 10 for a simple beef pho you can lavish with all the condiments”, she wrote.
