Shenwei travels to Vietnam|Overlooking the West Lake, the West Lake Intercontinental not only has the most beautiful scenery, but also a legend

Intercontinental Hotel in Hanoi West Lake Today is National Day, a wish from Vietnam: Wishing everyone a happy holiday, and wishing our motherland to be strong! It turns out that there is also a West Lake in Vietnam, in the capital Hanoi, and it is said that it also has a beautiful legend, which is also related to gratitude. The West Lake in Hanoi is not a famous tourist spot, with few tourists, but it is the largest inland lake in Vietnam. There are many coffee shops here, mainly European and Korean guests, most of whom are residents who live and work here. 16 years ago, the Intercontinental Hotel chose this location and opened its first hotel in Vietnam: West Lake Intercontinental. This trip to Hanoi, I was fortunate to stay in this legendary hotel. Counting, this year I have a particularly lot of fate with Intercontinental, which makes me love and understand this brand under IHG more and more. The first time I went to Thailand this year, the first hotel I stayed in was Intercontinental Koh Samui; This time I came to Vietnam, the first hotel I stayed in was Intercontinental Landmark72, and then continued to Intercontinental West Lake. Whether it's bill bensley or the fairy who descended to West Lake, as long as it is located in Intercontinental, they will choose Silly's bedding and Byredo's toiletries. The most important thing is the dining experience of the Intercontinental Executive Lounge, from breakfast to afternoon tea to dinner and bar time, I can feel the warmth of home. At West Lake Intercontinental, you can not only taste local delicacies, such as: the locomotive Pho with delicious beef, handmade homemade Vietnamese rolls and Bun Cha fused with pork; You can also taste Southeast Asian set meals, such as Chinese porridge set meals, Japanese grilled fish set meals, Korean kimchi set meals, etc., each of which is mouth-watering. Dinner is different every day, it is worth coming on time every day to taste, there is no need to go to the street to find, everything is good. What I look forward to most every day is the time of sunset. At the sunset bar, while tasting good wines from the world, I am fascinated by the city scenery on the opposite side of the river wrapped in golden color. Watching the night fall, the lights are beginning to come on, and the little lights are set against the stars. If you are in the swimming pool, you will doubt whether you are swimming with the stars. The night is too gentle, half of it sneaked into the dream, and half of it was rippling and became a worry. Of course, I prefer yoga to swimming. Next to West Lake, I found a hot yoga studio, which was created by an American lady who has lived here for ten years. She rented the entire building, the first floor is the kitchen, the second floor is the space where she and her Vietnamese husband live, and at the same time left a room for Airbnb, and the third floor is a yoga studio that can accommodate up to 7 people (it will be very crowded). I was surprised at her acquaintance with her husband, interested in her opportunity to come to Vietnam, and curious about what made her choose to stay. When a hotel is surrounded by interesting people, this hotel is a real legend. The attractions in Hanoi are relatively boring to me, but the hotels in Hanoi, each is a legend.
