Not only it is the city\u2019s largest lake, West Lake is also perhaps the most romantic corner of Hanoi which has appeared in many songs, stories and, poems about the city. Due to the lake’s unique “Feng shui” location, dozens of spiritual sites have been created all around it. Our knowledgeable tour guide will explain everything while we zipping around the lake, through the ancient villages nestled in the city’s most peaceful areas. Then, move on to Truc Bach Lake<\/strong> nearby \u2013 a frantic Hanoi with thousands of skyscrapers in the city’s new areas.<\/p>\n
