Hanoi's traffic-clogged streets can be overwhelming for locals, expats and tourists alike. This tour takes you out of the smog and guides you to an ancient village known for its beautiful houses and narrow alleys. Perfect to see life outside the city or perhaps take some photographs.
Itinerary:
08:15 am: Our driver & tour guide will pick you up at your hotel in Hanoi Old Quarter, then travel west of Hanoi to visit Duong Lam village, a purely agricultural village of the Northern Red River delta where many old houses stand preserved.
As you walk along tiny ancient alleys; visit Mong Phu temple in Mong Phu hamlet - the only hamlet whose original village entrance gate remains intact, dedicated to national heroes.
Have an opportunity to talk with the locals in their ancient houses by visiting the ancient house of Mr Lam, Mr Ha and Mr Huyen. Your special lunch with Vietnamese food will also take place in one of these traditional ancient houses.
In the afternoon, we continue driving to visit Mia Pagoda (another hamlet in Duong Lam village), it was built in the 15th century and houses 287 statues of all sizes, among which include famous sculptures such as the statue of Buddha in the Himalayas and the statues of the Eight Vajra Deities.
Finally, visit Ngo Quyen temple and Phung Hung temple, places dedicated to two national heroes Ngo Quyen and Phung Hung.
Driving back Hanoi the tour finishes around 5:00 pm at your hotel. Good bye and see you again!
