Hanoi Old Quarter – A very hip place in SE Asia

The centre of Hanoi around Hoan Kiem Lake has been cited by SkyScanner as one of the top 15 hippest places in Southeast Asia in a recent post on its website.


Here you'll find French Colonial architecture and Parisian-style cafes, boutiques specializing in original fashion, jewellery and furniture, and old-fashioned shops selling traditional crafts and trinkets.
For nightlife one can join the locals at the rooftop bars and street side watering holes that rock on into the early hours!
