Tourist Guide

This place is very known by tourist so it will be very busy when the train comes. Best is to take the morning train. I took the picture more back to the mean road. Most people stay further on the street where the coffee shops are.

Amazing place that trains traveling through this town so close to buildings.
Such a photogenic area
Lots of interesting things form the War. Approx 1hr to see all, walkable from the centre of Hanoi
