Thang Long Royal citadel (on Hoang Dieu street)
Thang Long Royal citadel is considered as one of the most important vestiges in Vietnam. It was built and expanded during Ly, Tran, Le and Nguyen Dynasty. However, through many wars, it had been damaged seriously. In 21th century, Thang Long Royal citadel was restored and in 2010 it was entitled on UNESCO’s World Heritage site.
When coming to Thang Long Royal citadel, you will be lost in the ancient world with the majesty of North Gate and Hanoi flag tower. You can take a photo at the front and behind of Doan Mon Gate. The photo style here is classic and traditional with the familiar image of young girls in Ao Dai.
The citadel is far from Uncle Ho’s Mausoleum more than 1 km, the main gate of the historic vestige is on Hoang Dieu street.
Some streets with peaceful space
Hoang Dieu, Phan Dinh Phung, Dien Bien Phu are three streets surrounding Thang Long Royal citadel. They are famous for shady long-lined trees with peaceful and quite space which is difficult to find in Hanoi.
The great time to take photo here is in the morning when the sun rises and everything is fresh in dew. If you are a romantic one, just come here in August when the leaves start to change into yellow and fall down.
If Hoang Dieu, Phan Dinh Phung and Dien Bien Phu are the most beautiful roads in Hanoi, Kim Ma is considered as the most romantic street. It has different beauty in each season. Every day the street welcomes many youth and couples to take photos.
