A VISIT TO HA NOI

Hello teacher and everybody. My name is Huyen. I’m 12 years old. Today,
I would like to tell you about my trip to Ha Noi.
As you know, Hanoi is the capital of Vietnam. It is famous for ancient
architectures and rich culture. I went to Ha Noi last summer vacation with my
family. I went there by car. I went about 3 hours to get there. I stayed in Ha Noi
for 4 days. I stayed in a small homestay. It looks so lovely and cozy.
I went to Hoan Kiem Lake. It is located in the city center. (The name Hoan
Kiem Lake comes from the fifteenth century with the legend of King Le Loi
returning the sword to the magic turtle.) It looks very beautiful and historic.
Besides, in the weekend, the streets around Hoan Kiem Lake take place many
interesting activities attracts many tourists.
I went to The Huc Bridge. The bridge was built in 1865. It helps you to go
to Ngoc Son temple. It is a wonderful scenery. I think Ngoc Son Temple is a
place that tourists cannot pass when go to Ha Noi.
I also visted Imperial Academy. Imperial Academy is the first university in
Vietnam. Nowadays, it is an attractive place for domestic and foreign tourists.
I visited Uncle Ho’s Mausoleum. It is an attractive historical attraction. It is
located in the middle of Ba Dinh square. It is surrounded by a lot of trees and
flowers, so the air here is so cool.
I visited One Pillar pagoda. It is known as the thousand-year-old lotus
flower of Hanoi capital. And it is also the symbol of Ha Noi.
I went to Ha Noi Train Street. It is located in a small alley in the ancient
town. As I know, it was built by the French in 1902. You can sit here to drink a
cup of coffee, chat with friends and watch the train run through a narrow road.
 At night, I went to Dong Xuan market. It is one of the biggest and busiest
markets to buy and sell in Viet Nam. It is a market where you can find
everything you need. I bought some souvenirs to bring back to my relatives
here.
Moreover, the cuisine in Hanoi is very diverse. They have unique flavors.
You can try the popular dishes here such as: Pho, Bun Cha, Spring Rolls, Bun
dau mam tom or Trang Tien Ice Cream. Besides, the people here are incredibly
friendly and kind.
Hanoi is an attractive destination that attracts many tourists every year. For
me, my trip to Ha Noi was so perfect that no words can be described. If you get
there you will have an unforgettable experience. Thanks for listening. Goodbye!
