Hanoi is the place to be.

We spent several days in Hanoi, a total of 9 nights. We arrived at the beginning of Tet (Chinese New Year), and the city was in exceptional circumstances. All the stores were closed, but there were many people on the streets.

We visited the Ho Chi Minh Museum, the Literature Temple, Hoan Kiem Lake, and many other places in Hanoi. We met so many amazing people, had great experiences, and had a lot of fun. Last night, a friend from Germany joined our little group, and we bought motorbikes. Tomorrow, we will start our motorbike trip, first to Halong Bay, or more specifically to the small island called Cat Ba.
