The Phung Hung street in Hanoi’s Old Quarter has been recently revived with beautiful mural paintings recalling Hanoi in the past. It just opened to the public in early February 2018 which is why very few photos of Hanoi contains photos of this street, it is now a favourite photo location and cultural space for city dwellers and visitors. Actually, when we were there a lot of teachers were celebrating Teachers Day taking photos with the murals as background. This is a nice spot to take photos of the landmarks in Hanoi.

A special and unique place in the walk around West Lake. The two dragons are a two-part sculpture situated in the water, relatively close to shore. It was built in 2010 for the celebration of one-thousand-year Hanoi. They are covered in tiles representing their scales. There are cafes, as well as ice cream and food vendors nearby, and it's a pleasant spot to relax.

Site of bits of a downed B52, not much visible but interesting to see what was happening there: A massive bomber B52 was shot down in the sky of Hanoi and landed the lake. You will be able to understand deeply about the Vietnam War.
