It's already 2 weeks since I returned from Hanoi. I'm really sorry for the late posting. :D
What nY loves most about Hanoi is the weather! It's 12 degree celcius during our stay there.
It is supposed to be spring but according to the locals, the winter stricked back.
Besides, there are many many handsome guys in Hanoi too!!!!
The journey from LCCT to Hanoi airport ( Noi Bai) took about 3 hours.

My leng leng travel mates ( leng leng auntie gang) - Mummy, Uncle Sim's mummy and Xweing's mummy at the Noi Bai Hanoi arrival gate

Cool and wet scenery which we could see on the way to our hotel

Our hotel in Hanoi - Blue Star hotel
USD 20 for twin sharing

The place where I used to hang out when other travel mates were asleep

Old old shop lots in Hanoi

The owner of the hotel brought us to this place where they charged 80k ( ~ RM16) per pax for the smelly fish noodles. They wanna cut our neck! >.<

Fried oily spring roll
We did not taste it as we left the restaurant after we failed to get a good bargain with the chef.

Oily meat cake soaked in the oil.
I think i will become super fatty if I ate this!
nY and mummy were sitting on the tiny stool while waiting for our cheap but delicious smelly fish noodles on the street. It costs us 10k
VND ( RM2) per
pax only.
Tada~ the Hanoi famous smelly fish noodles
The soup is purple in color :P

The smelly fish sauces- it is made from stale fish
jais - that's why it is purple

Nice! Gives me an idea about what y'all did in Hanoi when I was not there~
From the pic, Hanoi looks like a wetter, cooler version of Phnom Penh. But Hanoi looks more Chinese I guess, from the Temple of Literature photo.
\:D/
And the cencaluk looks really yucky........ OMG...
Xweing: Hehe... Next time we must go travel together de ah!
I really miss the times in Hanoi! It's so cool and r0mantic! How I wish I can pak tor with my future bf there again. XD
Which do you prefer, Bangkok or Hanoi?
I dunno... havent been to Hanoi yet but I think I would prefer Bangkok... more civilised... that's how I felt when I reached Bangkok after Phnom Penh.
Xweing : Of coz I prefer Bsngkok!!! I went to BKK three times and I will definitely go back again if god gives me the chance! :P
Hanoi is a poor country but it is full with the beauty of nature especially Ha Long bay! I miss it so so much!
