Vietnam Day 10: Hanoi (Part 1)

03/07/07

Our muscles were aching a little from yesterday's gruelling climb to Perfume Pagoda and it was going to be a rather relaxing day in Hanoi.

Our hostel room

Our US$1 breakfast

We continued to tour the historical monuments and museums around Hanoi. I was the navigator as usual and we walked quite a lot around Hanoi.

St Joseph Cathedral

Plus the 3 of us

Passing by a temple

Taking a picture along the way

We went to the Temple of Literature and there were many Vietnamese people inside instead of tourists. I guess many students go there to pray for good results.
