[Hanoi] A stylish cafe filled with flowers
Hanoi is a city that girls who love cafes will love.
There are so many cafes to choose from that it's hard to decide where to go.
This time, I went to this cafe because it was so cute, both inside and out, and filled with flowers!
Bancong Cafe & Restaurant, located in Hanoi's Old Quarter, is a four-story cafe, and each floor has a completely different atmosphere!
Those who come for tea time are on the second floor, those who make reservations for private use are on the third floor, and those who come for meals are on the fourth floor.
We only had tea, so we went to the second floor.
The atmosphere on the second floor also had a Hanoi cafe feel, which was great!
The flower zone we were looking for was on the third floor, so we just went to take a look around.
There must have been a reservation for a birthday celebration that day, because the decorations were in birthday mode.
The food was delicious and we were very satisfied.
This cafe is recommended for girls who love flowers.

Hoan Kiem Tre’s beloved café ‘All Day Coffee’
Vietnamese coffee is famous, but there are many baristas who are not professional.
Allday Coffee only employs professional baristas, so you can choose the coffee beans you want, make hand drip, and taste high-quality coffee.
A cafe I visited at least 8 times a month while living in Vietnam_
It was my own cafe that I wanted to keep hidden!
📍Allday Coffee: 37 P. Quang Trung, Tran Hung Dang, Hoàn Kiếm, Hà Nội
📍Opening hours: 07:00 - 23:00
📍Signature menu: Egg coffee

The Highla
The Highland Coffee Shop building in Hoan Kiem is currently closed as of April 29, 2025. The coffee shop on the 4th floor across the street is thriving.
I thought the Highland Coffee Shop building was a landmark of Hoan Kiem, but it's too bad.

A leisurely emotional trip to Hanoi, Vietnam

Enjoy leisurely time with a 1,000 won banh mi and a cup of bean coffee while strolling around Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi!
Although Hanoi is a complex capital city, it has the charm of being able to enjoy emotions leisurely
The somewhat gray weather and water color contrasting with the colorful props created its own emotions during the Hanoi trip🤍
Hanoi Essentials Tour 👀Walking around the lake, exploring the market, and eating street food!
1. Hoan Kiem Lake Walk😎
Hoan Kiem Lake, where I walked slowly while feeling the morning air.
I liked the local people jogging, the sunlight sparkling between the trees,
and the somewhat leisurely rhythm of the city.
2. Local Market Tour🤩
The market next door was a vivid scene of life.
The sound of motorcycles, the smell of fruits and vegetables,
and the sound of bargaining all felt like part of the trip.
3. Street Food Time: Banh Mi & Rice Noodles🫢
The Banh Mi I ate at a street stall in the alley of the market was soft on the outside and soft on the inside.
The taste of cilantro, meat, and pickles harmoniously blended inside a freshly baked baguette.
And then I walked a little further and ate rice noodles at a local restaurant.
The deep and clear broth and the meat were so tender that I finished a bowl in no time!
I walked without a plan, but that was the best day🧡
If you're curious about the atmosphere and taste of Hanoi, I really recommend this route!

I like Hanoi.
If you travel to Hanoi, be sure to visit the Railway Cafe Street, Hoan Kiem Lake, and Ba Dinh Square. Don't miss them and make good memories.
What do you get when you come to Vietnam? Rice noodles!!
Vietnam has a really, really wide variety of rice noodles and rice dishes.
The regular rice noodles we know,
and the thin noodles that are usually eaten when eating bun cha, are called bun,
and they are very, very thin~ So you can't believe how delicious they are when you soak them up with sweet and sour bun cha sauce!!
Also, if you get tired of beef rice noodles, I recommend chicken rice noodles and
rice noodles with fried fish! The taste varies depending on the type of fish, but if you avoid fish with too many bones, it's a delicacy worth trying!! I also recommend a buffet full of traditional Vietnamese food where you can eat rice paper and various Vietnamese foods!!
Where can you find so many delicious restaurants?
It's Hanoi!!! There are so many delicious restaurants❤️

A must-vis
A must-visit place in Hanoi!
You can see the train passing right in front of you.
There are also many cafes, so you can sit down at any one of them and have a cup of coffee while enjoying the atmosphere!
The lighting is good, the scenery is good, and it's also great for taking pictures.^^
After having a light meal at a famous restaurant called Nhem Nuong near Hoan Kiem around 5 PM, go to a mango shaved ice shop called Hoa Beo and have mango shaved ice overflowing with mango. Then, walk slowly around the area and walk to the Hanoi train tracks. It will be around 6:30 PM to 7 PM, and it will be the best to see the train passing by against the night view at that time. After the train has passed, come out to the road in front and take a Grab to your accommodation. I hope you have a good trip.

This is a Michelin restaurant that you can trust ❤️. We ordered various dishes and enjoyed them in a space that captured the exotic atmosphere of Hanoi. 🍽️ The atmosphere was great, so we had a pleasant dinner with a glass of Tiger Beer 🍻. The food is really great, needless to say~ I think it would be delicious no matter what you want to eat! 😋

A Michelin restaurant with clean and delicious food! 😋 It was really delicious. I ordered rolls, morning glory, banh xeo, bun cha, and shabu shabu, and they were all delicious and the portions were generous, so I had some leftoversㅎㅎ. Shabu shabu comes with meat, vegetables, soup, and two kinds of noodles, so the portions are large 🍲. You can also pay by card, and for a famous restaurant, the prices are really reasonable and cheap! 💳

The menu is really diverse, and I think I've been there almost 10 times, but I still haven't tried everything! 🍽️ This is a place I always take someone to when they come to visit. The price is reasonable, and the atmosphere is great, so you can enjoy Vietnamese food regardless of your taste. 😊 I think this is probably the most famous Vietnamese restaurant for foreigners. It's always mentioned in travel agencies and travel information media. 📚 I definitely recommend making a reservation on the day! Even if you make a reservation, you may have to wait, so it's better to leave some time to spare⏳

I visited Quan Ngon, a famous restaurant in Hanoi that was selected for the Michelin Guide 2023-2024! 🌟 Most of the restaurants I visited during my trip to Hanoi this year were small or had a strong local feel, but Quan Ngon, which I discovered by chance, really liked both the atmosphere and the taste of the food. 🍽️ It felt like Madam Lan in Da Nang had been transformed into something clean and stylish, and the outdoor seating decorated with colorful traditional Vietnamese lights was really impressive✨. The indoor seating was also comfortable and cozy, so it was a great place for both the atmosphere and the food.

There is air conditioning on Dogs and cats are not allowed in Smoking is allowed in outer space
Whichever establishment of Hanoi Neighbors is crowded. Hanoi Neighbors' new super-large building with 3 floors. This is probably the cafe I see with the most sofa chairs ever, freely for you to be amazed. The vibe of the cozy shop, very suitable for the cold winter days of Hanoi. However due to just getting started some corners are still working so will look a bit messy. I prefer airy space so I always prefer pleasant outside area, if you like dark space, you can choose indoor area. The restaurant will be suitable for gathering and meeting with small tables, this time I see it is quite crowded, you have to go 3 times to get a seat
Buying fruit at a street stall in front of Hoan Kiem Lake
There are a few fruit stalls in front of Hoan Kiem Lake.
There were a few fruits that were incredibly colorful and strangely shaped,
so I couldn't suppress my curiosity and bought them. There were a lot of fruits that tasted a little bit delicious,
but didn't taste good. And they gave me a mixture of red pepper powder and sugar, so I could dip them in it. It seems like they told me to dip them in the fruit because it didn't taste good.
The experience of sitting on the mini tables and chairs around the lake was satisfying,
but I can't forget the expensive price and taste of the fruits. I threw away more of them after eating them.

Hoan Kiem Lake, where you can take a rickshaw or take a walk
Hoan Kiem Lake is a famous tourist destination in Vietnam.
It took about 10 minutes to walk across one side of the lake.
At that time, there were rickshaws lined up in front of the lake.
I rode it for 350, or 350,000 dong. That's right, it's a scam.
Originally, 200,000 dong would be appropriate. But at first, they asked for 400,000 dong.
I haggled down to 300,000 dong and rode it, but they said it was pretty on the way.
I gave them 350,000 dong because they wanted to drink beer...

Walking Street, Hoan Kiem Lake, Vietnam
#Flying with trip#Hoan Kiem Lake #The Huc Red Bridge #Walking Street #Vietnam Travel
After dinner, the guide took us to walk on the walking street. It was quite lively here. There was a hat show. There were a lot of clothing and food shops. But the places to sit and eat were squatting chairs. It was strange because most of the people working there were not nobles, so they definitely didn't have a big belly.
After we had something to eat, we took pictures with the red bridge with beautiful lights. Tomorrow, it will be the end of the width. The children came to run and play happily. It was really fun.
Hoan Kiem
Hoan Kiem Lake, a large lake in the old town. Haha, it's so beautiful. It's healing to look at the view during the day or at night. There's a terrace at Highland Coffee on the third floor of a five-story building on Hoan Kiem Lake, so it's perfect for drinking coffee while looking at the view. If you get hot while looking at the view, go inside and the air conditioner will be on so you can dry off your sweat.^^
Hanoi trip with parents
#SoutheastAsiaFlightEvent
I went to Hanoi with my parents in February.
The weather was cool and perfect for traveling.
That's probably why the airfare was so expensive and there were so many tourists.
Still, I had a great time visiting tourist attractions, eating delicious food, and having fun.
The photo is near Hoan Kiem Lake.
We drew portraits of ourselves with a painter and had a great time eating delicious food on the beer street. #Hanoi #Hoan Kiem Lake #Beer Street #Hanoi Beer Street
