The show itself was great (the performers did a fantastic job) but the service was a bit disappointing. We queued but we were asked to wait on the side of the stairs (all those who booked online) without any advice on what to do. They said &ldquo;just wait&rdquo;. It was 5 minutes before the show when someone came and gave us the tickets. If I have to watch this show again, I&rsquo;d rather purchase the ticket on site.

Hoan Kiem Lake

Natural scenery

Night view

佳小姐的环球旅行

This is the most famous attraction in Hanoi. It is also the most central location in Hanoi and a landmark symbol. I thought the lake was very big at first, but it turned out to be just like a pond. The most lively streets around Hoan Kiem Lake are all in Hanoi. Sanshiliuhang Street is nearby, and the Red House Cafe is also here.
It is recommended to stay near Hoan Kiem Lake because Hanoi is very small and the attractions can be walked. And the food is also concentrated in this area.
There is still a big difference between the north and the south of Vietnam. Anyway, Hanoi can be visited in one day.

Located not far from Hoan Kiem Lake, Hanoi Cathedral is a truly impressive cathedral! I arrived in the evening, so I didn&#39;t get to explore it properly. I just looked at the exterior. There&#39;s a small garden at the entrance with a statue of the Virgin Mary. The surrounding streets are all unique and well worth a stroll.

Hanoi Train Street

This is a really nice spot! Not far from Hanoi Train Station, there are many restaurants and bars on both sides of this section of the railway. About ten trains pass by every day! First of all, I definitely recommend going at night for the best view; the neon lights along the entire street are stunning! Secondly, when you go there, you&#39;ll see tables and chairs placed on both sides of the railway. You have to buy a beer to sit and wait for the train to pass. However, when the train passes, only the tables and chairs on the shop side remain seated. Those on the other side must leave their seats and pack up their tables. So, remember to choose a seat on the bar side for the best view!

Hanoi 36th block is Hanoi Old Street, it must be, it is worth a visit, Hanoi tourism must go, how can you say that you have been to Hanoi if you don&#39;t go here, here is a perfect tourist place for Vietnamese history, life, food, shopping. Very convenient, a lot of food, accommodation choice is also very convenient, there are many hotels and hotels. Don&#39;t regret it. I have been to Hanoi many times, and I live here. It is too suitable for swimming.

Live Show

Chin Chun Hsiao

My two 6-year-old children and I loved watching the performance. Especially knowing that it was performed on an open-water stage with a cast of nearly 200 actors, I knew I had to bring my children to experience it! The performance&#39;s music and atmosphere were moving, taking the audience back to the traditional past of Northern Vietnam and allowing them to feel the diligence, spirit, and faith of the Northern Vietnamese people.
Several times during the show, I got goosebumps (meaning it was very touching), and at the end, the actors even invited the audience to join in a bamboo dance game, which was very fun and lively.
You can buy food and drinks before the show, but we chose to take a Grab from Hanoi. Please be aware of Hanoi&#39;s rush hour traffic, as the estimated travel time is 50 minutes! It&#39;s recommended to leave early. Getting a Grab after the show is also very convenient.
Despite the long journey, I believe this is a must-see show in Northern Vietnam.
