Vietnam - Hanoi

---

Holiday. Loved Hanoi. Busy but so much to see. My favourite was the Revolution museum. And walking around the streets. And the merchant house. And the lake in the early morning. Got annoyed by fellow tourists talking all through the water puppets performance and sticking cameras up in front of the stage. Feel proud to have figured this city out a bit.

Morning exercises
6am around the Lake, lots of groups doing exercises. These people had fans and were dancing. Perhaps reliving careers from their youth...

Museum
This is just from the garden of a museum, But I like the building.

There should be more of these
Shame I missed this festival.

Off the beaten track!
This is Ho Chi Minh's mausoleum. I accidentally ventured into the area that was not open to the public and heavily guarded by military. My naive smile saved me.

One Pillar Pagoda
A must see sight. The queue was too long so I didn't go in...
