Hanoi, a city where the exotic chic of old Asia blends with the dynamic face of new Asia. Where the medieval and modern co-exist. A city with a blend of Parisian grace and Asian pace, an architectural museum piece evolving in harmony with its history, rather than bulldozing through like many of the region's capitals.

The French-colonial era has a legacy of beautiful buildings, with the Old Quarter a fascinating area to explore on foot.
