Hanoi & North
Why go?
The north of Vietnam is stunning, with high mountains, emerald green forests, plunging valleys and the elegant capital city, Hanoi. A blend of French architecture, royal legacies and artisan influences, it’s beautiful to wander around – and a mecca for shopping. To the east lies Ha Long Bay – a UNESCO listed seascape of limestone outcrops that rise majestically from the sea. To the north are the picturesque regions of Sapa, Son La and Bac Ha, which are filled with minority villages and wonderfully lush scenery.
