This is Hoan Kiem Lake, across from our hotel in Hanoi.

Us at Hoan Kiem Lake.

The streets of Hanoi.

We decided to stay at this hotel for our last two nights.

This dish, bun with spring rolls, is popular in northern Vietnam.

My trip would not be complete without seeing the water puppets, performing at Thang Long Water Puppet Theater.
Traditional music was performed to accompany the water puppets.

We visited the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, where Uncle Ho's body is preserved and can still be seen.

The Hanoi Fine Arts Museum has a very impressive collection.
Large statue of Guan Yin, with literally one thousand hands.
Large statue of Sakyamuni Buddha on a Snow Mountain.
Lacquer paintings are very popular in Vietnamese art, sometimes etched like this one.

Entrance to the Temple of Literature, a Confucian sanctuary.

This is pho, a very popular soup in Vietnamese cuisine.

We ended our day with a few drinks at the Latin Lounge in our hotel.

We hope you've enjoyed viewing our Vietnam trip!
