【Hanoi, Vietnam】Serein Cafe & Lounge

Long Bien Bridge is one of Hanoi's tourist attractions. It was the city's first steel bridge, built by the French between 1899 and 1902 during the colonial era. It connects the Hoan Kiem and Long Bien districts on either side of the Red River. This cafe is right next to the bridge, offering outdoor seating and a view of the historic bridge. The cafe has five floors. After ordering on the third floor, you can choose to dine on the third, fourth, and fifth floors. The fifth floor is open-air, and above it, there's a small raised terrace offering an unobstructed view of the Long Bien Bridge. For hot weather in Hanoi, opt for the fourth floor. You can take photos on the balcony before dining inside. The décor is elegant and retro. Dish: Egg coffee. The egg custard on top was very sweet, while the coffee underneath was quite bitter, with a light cocoa aftertaste. I wasn't particularly fond of it. Photo Location: The seating area on the fourth-floor balcony. You can open the door and take photos of the archway for a unique look. 💰Average Cost: A bit high for Hanoi prices. A cup of egg coffee and a juice cost NT$319. 📍Address: 16 Tập thể Ga Long Biên, Đồng Xuân, Hoàn Kiếm, Hanoi, Vietnam 🕰️Opening Hours: 8:00 AM–11:00 PM #August_Destinations2025

Bavi National Park

Nature’s Escape at Ba Vi National Park 🌲☀️⛺ Ready to swap city buzz for pine-scented serenity just outside Hanoi? Ba Vi National Park is your all-in-one getaway—think lush forests, tranquil pine hills, and dreamy campsites that’ll refresh your mind and fuel your inner adventurer. Your trail starts at the main entrance (Vân Hoà, Ba Vì, Hanoi), where you’ll pay a small ticket fee. Head for the Đồi Thông (Pine Hill) area—perfect for laid-back walks, picnics, and forest bathing. Set up camp here for the ultimate “back to nature” experience, waking to chirping birds and soft morning mist. If you’re chasing clouds (“săn mây”), go between late autumn and winter—sunrise is your golden hour to catch Ba Vi’s famous cloud sea rolling through the canopy. Must-dos: - Explore Đồi Thông, take in the other tree-lined trails, and indulge in some forest yoga! - Camping is a must—bring your gear for night skies and fresh morning air (camping sites are well maintained and clean). Top photo spots: - Pine Hill’s sun-dappled clearings - Nature-vision panoramas from higher viewpoints (especially during misty, dreamy mornings) Tips: - Wear light hiking shoes—trails are straightforward but can be slick with dew. - Pack water and snacks; options inside are limited. - Entry fee is reasonable—bring cash for convenience. - Early mornings give you the best light and crowd-free moments. Precautions: Keep an eye out for sudden weather changes and protect your gear from moisture. Summer weekends bring bigger crowds—come midweek for peace. #BaViNationalPark #NatureEscape #HanoiTrips #CampingAdventure #VietnamNature

Thay Pagoda

Hidden Tranquility at Thay Pagoda—A Slice of History in Hanoi 🌸⛩️ Step into an oasis of calm where centuries-old tradition meets serene landscape at Thay Pagoda. Perfect for culture lovers and history buffs, you’ll find classic Chinese architecture framed by sunlit gardens, tranquil ponds, and ancient trees. Itinerary Idea: Start your stroll at Thủy Đình (the charming Water Pavilion), perched gracefully over the lotus pond. Snap a "building close-up" with the pagoda’s elegant wooden details reflected in the water—early morning is ideal for soft sunlight and minimal crowds, making your photos truly insta-worthy. Wander through the main temple complex, taking time to soak in the leafy shade and quiet atmosphere. Admire the handcrafted altars and historic statues before crossing the pretty arched bridge—pause here for a scenic shot with river, flowers, and temple in one frame! Must-do: Watch local devotees make offerings, or join in if you wish—this is a truly authentic experience. If you’re up for it, hike the short path up the hillside for sweeping views over the countryside dotted with lakes and old trees. Visiting Tips: Wear light, respectful clothing and slip-on shoes (you’ll need to remove them inside temple buildings). Bring a hat, as the midday sun is strong. If you want to explore in peace, aim to visit on a weekday morning and avoid festival periods. Key Precautions: Steep stone steps and uneven paths mean sturdy footwear and caution are needed. Stick to marked trails to protect both yourself and the heritage site. #HaNoi #ThayPagoda #CulturalTrip #HiddenGem #SunnyDays
