Exploring Hanoi on the hottest days ever

in Worldmappin2 years ago

Hello everyone,

It's been a long time since I last posted and due to some personal reasons I've had to take a break from Hive altogether for a while.

I am now again able to spend more time on Hive though and like I said before I wanna get back to posting more. I have been taking a lot more photos lately which is another thing I wanted to do. I think I am starting to get a bit better at it but still need some practice. Anyway, let's get to the post!


So after Cambodia, I made it to Vietnam where I started my journey in Hanoi. I spent some time there and it was amazing. The city itself is beautiful and there are so many cool things to visit and do that the days fly by. When I first got there I took a walk around and found this cool park. One thing I noticed immediately was the insane heat there. It was so much hotter than Bangkok had been.

They have amazing food there too and I ate a bunch of Pho and Banh Mi. The coffee is something else there too. It was easily the best coffee I've ever had. I just loved it.

This place is in the middle of the lake in the first photo and there is a temple you can check out. There is a mythical turtle in this lake and the temple is dedicated to it. After the park, I decided to go check out one of the Museums which was very interesting. They have a lot of museums in Hanoi. My favorite was probably the Hoa Lo prison museum which when it was active had the nickname "Hanoi Hilton".

There are a few places where you will find these train tracks going through the city. Looks like it has to be pretty tight once the train comes. They have these in a few places though and you can also find them in Bangkok.

The next day I decided to go to museums again.

They have quite a few museums dedicated to war here and if you are interested in that kinda stuff you will love it in Hanoi. They have a lot of Vietnamese and of course also American planes and helicopters.

I still had my old phone when I took these photos which I upgraded soon after so please bear with me. The quality will improve soon. Hanoi was honestly amazing and traveling through these incredible cities and countries has been the time of my life. I will keep posting more from every place I visit so you can all join me on these travels.

That was Hanoi and I would recommend anyone to come to visit because you'll have an amazing time. The food is incredible and you'll quickly become addicted to a good Banh Mi. The coffee is to die for and the people are super friendly. In the evenings you can head out to the bar street and enjoy some Bia Hoi which is a beer that they brew daily. Very popular here and most of all cheap.

Next up I will be going to Da Nang which is in central Vietnam and we will visit some amazing places there too so stay tuned for that. Thanks again for checking out my post and I really hope you like it. See you next time!

Peace out, Straw

It's very very beautiful, especially the little arch thingy or altar, whatever it may be.

The abondoned plane also is a nice twist

Thanks dude. I got to visit a lot of cool places in that city.

Must have been an amazing experience, im sure

It's been a while. About 2 months since your last post. I'm glad you'll be able to get back into Hive more regularly again. Great to see you have been exploring so many wonderful places. You are living life and that will motivate others to do the same.

Yeah it felt like a lot longer to be honest haha. Feels great to be back though. It's been an amazing journey so far and I really enjoyed being able to share it with everyone here.

Good to see an update from you after quite a while; I was wondering where you were right now. Hopefully all is all going well with your little trip. Cheers man 🥃

Wow! Those pictures are incredible and I love the view of the water. Thanks for sharing

Traveling around the world has always been something that amuses me and I must say that have even added it to my list of things I will do but for now, I will keep reading about exciting places. Judging from the first picture I saw in this write-up, I knew Hanoi has to be a place filled with history and adventure. Damn!!! I so love with that Seaview. Can't WAIT TO SEE THE NEXT PLACE YOU WILL BE EXPLORING TO.

Hanoi is truly an amazing city and I enjoyed the time I spent there very much. I kept thinking how I wish I had a better camera to capture the city properly. Anyway I am glad you liked my post. There will be more to come soon.

It's the more I'm looking forward to already. Added you to my favorite already, so I won't miss any update.

Welcome to Viet Nam. If you arrive in Da Nang, I promise It'll be a great time and unforgettable for you. and I highly recommend Hoi An too, It is next to Da Nang

Me and my husband want to go to Vietnam. Im glad to see some of the photos and love the look of the church! The temple looks like what I normally see in Thailand. Beautiful!

You should definitely go if you get a chance. Vietnam is amazing but to be honest I still like Thailand more haha. Thanks I am really glad you liked the photo.

Oh! Hanoi is such a beautiful city to visit. Well, traveling in Asia especially in Vietnam, the weather might be hot. Obviously in this month as I live in Cambodia, it really hot too from 11-4 pm.

Yeah it really is. I can imagine the heat over there. I was in Cambodia not that long ago. It was also very hot haha.
