Try looking from above angles, you will see a capital city with extraordinary beauty which also changes day by day, even by weather or seasons in the year.

To get an image of Hanoi from above is also an interesting hunt for photographers. Hanoitimes would like to introduce Hanoi, a 1010-year-old city, seen from above with hypnotizing snapshots:

Hoan Kiem lake surrounded by trees is like green "lung" in the heart of Hanoi. The lake is a fantastic place and one of the most attractive destinations in the city.
Thanh Nien street, a beautiful one along West lake in Tay Ho district, which is the largest natural lake in Hanoi. It is the most famous tourist attractions as well as an iconic place of the capital city.
The Manor municipality in Hanoi. This is a set of skyscrapers twins which are 105 meters high. The buildings are built in a style inspired by French architecture from the XIXth century.
This is a lake in Thong Nhat park, which is one of green “lungs” in Hanoi. It is one of the five lakes with the most runners every morning and afternoon. In the city, many lakeshores have been upgraded to become beautiful landscapes.
 Ring road No.3, an important road axis in Hanoi, from a bird's eye view.

Nguyen Chi Thanh street in Dong Da district. In the poll “The most beautiful street of Vietnam”, the street was voted as one of the most beautiful urban streets. It was named after a great general, who had devoted so much to the national liberation struggle.
Bay Mau lake and Ba Mau lake are also green “lungs” in the capital city.
Hanoi’s view from the center of Ba Dinh, the largest square in Vietnam, located in front of Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum. This is also the place where president Ho Chi Minh read the Proclamation of Independence of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam on September 2, 1945.
Immense lakes in the capital city. Hanoi’s "green lungs" have been revived thanks to the efforts of the municipal government and local residents.
