Description

A night tour to discover the unique charm of Hanoi after sunset. Stroll through iconic landmarks, enjoy local specialties, admire historic architecture, and witness traditional rituals. Most notably, this is a special opportunity to experience a spectacular 3D Mapping light show at the heritage site of the Temple of Literature – Vietnam’s first national university.. Itinerary Gathering Point: Our tour guide will see you at the gathering point - Dong Kinh Nghia Thuc Square. Begin your tour at Dong Kinh Nghia Thuc Square, one of the most dynamic crossroads in Hanoi’s Old Quarter. Surrounded by bright city lights, historic facades, and the ever-moving flow of motorbikes and pedestrians, the square offers a striking first impression of the capital at night. Next, stop by Thuy Ta Ice Cream, a beloved local shop nestled along the banks of Hoan Kiem Lake. Known for its nostalgic charm and classic Vietnamese flavors, Thuy Ta has been a part of Hanoi’s culinary memory for generations. Take a moment to enjoy a sweet treat as you soak in the lakeside breeze and the shimmering reflections of the city lights. Tucked in a quiet alley of the Old Quarter, Nam Huong Communal House offers a peaceful glimpse into Hanoi’s spiritual traditions. This optional stop lets you step away from the city’s buzz and explore a hidden cultural gem. Continue to St. Joseph’s Cathedral, an iconic Gothic church that stands tall in the heart of Hanoi. Lit beautifully at night, the cathedral offers a striking mix of French colonial charm and local spirituality — a perfect spot for photos and quiet admiration. As the evening deepens, enjoy a meal at one of three handpicked spots. Choose from a comforting bowl of traditional northern pho, a creative twist on street food favorites, or a peaceful space offering plant-based dishes. Within the sacred grounds of the Temple of Literature – Vietnam’s first national university and a symbol of its thousand-year-old scholarly heritage – audiences are invited to experience a mesmerizing 3D mapping show like no other. Layer by layer, vibrant projections transform the architecture into a canvas of cultural memory, guiding viewers through epic stories of nation-building, resilience, and scholarly tradition. Ba Dinh Square – Flag Lowering Ceremony The evening concludes at Ba Dinh Square, where you’ll witness the solemn flag-lowering ceremony in front of Ho Chi Minh’s Mausoleum. A quiet, powerful moment that honors the nation’s spirit — and marks the perfect end to your night tour.
