Then we walk along the old town. We will visit the iconic Hanoi Train Street, Hanoi Flag tower and through to the Vietnam military museum. After, we will stop in the beautiful Lenin park, for a quick rest before we continue to walk to Van Mieu- the Temple of Literature.
The Temple of Literature was Vietnam's first university. The complex consists of five separate courtyards, highlighted by the Khue Van Pavilion and eight-two of the steles remain. These are considered the most valuable artifacts at the temple. The Temple of Literature, known as Van Mieu, has honored Vietnam’s intellectual elite for centuries. Originally a university dedicated to Confucius, this historic temple pays homage to the philosopher and the many intellectuals who have contributed to building Vietnam’s scholarly culture.
To finish our day we will have lunch at an antique French style restaurant. We can relax with coffee or tea and admire the ancient French architecture.
