Hanoi - where to go next?

#100waysoftravel The famous railroad track is a well-known spot for foreigners traveling to Hanoi. However, I don't recommend this place due to safety concerns—it’s never safe to sit near a passing train. But if you want to give it a try, this place offers a unique experience. Getting onto the track takes some effort, but the locals are usually willing to help. Alternatively, you can find the old vibe of Hanoi in the Old Quarter, with its beautiful houses that are nearly a century old. There are many great restaurants and coffee shops in this area, making it a worthwhile place to visit, especially on a chill day. If you're looking for an academic atmosphere, you could go to Ta Quang Buu Square at Hanoi University of Science and Technology. It's a very relaxing spot on an autumn afternoon. Nearby is Thong Nhat Park, where you can take a walk and enjoy the fresh air.
