100,000VNDThis walk is now full. Please RSVP for the waiting list and prirority for a repeat walk
Welcome to a stroll around some of Hanoi’s Old Quarter and the ’36 Streets’.
This is the Bạch Mã temple walk where we discover why a white horse was instrumental in the building of the Thang Long citadel over 1,000 yrs ago, how today’s trade of Hàng Buồm street with alcohol shops and bars is a far cry from its original activity, we visit a number of lesser known and hidden places of worship and a few ‘hidden’ alleys, ending at one of Hanoi’s newest and most beautiful of art spaces.
We have a short break at a cafe in Hang Chieu.
We start and end in Hàng Buồm. Starting at bit earlier at 9am to try to avoid some of the city heat later on in the morning.
Allow 2hrs 45 mins for the walk, feel free to leave at any time if we over run.
Please RSVP to Stella – stella@fvheritage.org
