Hanoi in the list of top ten culturally rich cities

Hanoi has recently listed among world’s top ten culturally rich cities that travelers need to visit, according to Lifehack, a website specializing in providing tips that help people have a productive, happy and better life.

Accordingly, Hanoi ranked tenth in the list. Chiang Mai, the largest and most culturally significant city in northern Thailand, topped Lifehack’s list, followed by other cities including Kathmandu of Nepal, Udaipur of India, Berlin of Germany, Prague of Czech Republic, Florence of Italy, and Melbourne of Australia, Amman of Jordan and Marrakesh of Morocco.

The website said “Cultural treats in the friendly capital of Vietnam include the highly popular Dancing Water Puppets Show which depicts ancient fables with an impressive display of lighting, song and dance.”

“Shopping for everything from shoes and souvenirs to traditional medicinal oils in the Old Quarter of the city, having suits and dresses tailored for a bargain from one of Hanoi’s world famous tailoring shops, hanging around the glittering Hoan Kiem lake in the evenings and visiting the Ho Chi Minh Complex. Eating in Hanoi’s street kitchens is a fun and offbeat way to truly experience the culture of communal dining that’s so typical of the locals,” Lifehack suggested travelers who plan to visit Hanoi.
