Hanoi, the vibrant capital of Vietnam, is a city where ancient heritage and modern life blend in remarkable harmony. Covering the largest land area in the country and home to over 9 million people, it sits within the fertile Red River Delta in northern Vietnam. At just 5 to 20 meters above sea level, Hanoi is shaped by the Red River, which flows toward the Gulf of Tonkin about 90 kilometers away. Once called the “Paris of the East,” it is now honored as the “City for Peace,” reflecting its enduring spirit. With roots dating back to the Bronze Age, Hanoi is one of the cradles of Vietnamese civilization. In 1010 AD, King Ly Thai To made it the capital, naming it Thang Long, or “Soaring Dragon.” In 1831, King Minh Mang renamed it Hanoi, meaning “city within the rivers.” Today, after more than a thousand years, Hanoi remains the cultural and historical heart of Vietnam, rich in tradition yet alive with modern energy.
