Overview:
Ha
Noi is one of the most attractive capital city in Southeast
Asia. Abounding in lakes and parks, the heart is the Old
Quarter. Ha means river, Noi means inner. Ha Noi itself means
the inner river city, or bounded by river-the red river. The
name of the city was given to by king Ming Mang in 1831. By many
up and down of time, Ha Noi ‘s been Viet Nam ‘s capital again
since 1945 after an interruption of history. (Hanoi is the way
of writing in English, Vietnamese would say Ha Noi, as well as
Viet Nam instead of writing Vietnam)
