Romantic architecture of Hanoi

Hanoi is not only about 36 streets. Hanoi also has works of French architecture, delicate, romantic and full of nostalgic emotions of a bygone era.

Walking around the central streets of Hanoi, visitors will surely be amazed by the beauty of the architectural buildings with classical French influences.

Even though nearly a hundred years have passed, it seems that these works still retain their original appearance.

Although time has somewhat changed the delicate decorative patterns on the walls, the curved window bars, or the moss-covered yellow walls.

From offices, theaters, schools, museums to villas and houses… all have the unmistakable European features, magnificent but also no less sophisticated.

French architectural features have somewhat blended into the landscape and atmosphere of Hanoi, creating a unique appearance that is difficult to confuse with any other city.

Every street corner, every house, even every simple wall, every small window on the balcony filled with fragrant flowers neatly arranged… easily brings to the mind of tourists the French mark: romantic and beautiful like the pages of a romance novel.
