Explore Hanoi’s notable landmarks in the light of the Vietnam War: their hidden histories unveiled. Unearth the lived experiences under a systematized economy, the destiny of inhabitants from the North and South, and the journey to Vietnam’s unification - a nation formerly split between communists and their adversaries on the verge of the COLD WAR.
Our ‘ambulatory exploration’ will span approximately 2.5 hours, punctuated with a brief taxi jaunt midway. My objective for this walk is to guide you to particular zones of Hanoi (beyond the reach of typical tourists) under the lens of the city’s multi-layered history not often spotlighted by conventional guidebooks. This will be detailed (history enthusiasts are encouraged to join) yet shared in an easygoing and cheerful spirit. Our interaction is meant to be more of a conversational exchange than a monologue.
The sites we’ll be touring include:
- Cho Gioi region
- Kham Thiem B52 remembrance monument
- Hanoi Train Street
