In the afternoon, you will have a good time with your family and friends by visiting the cafe. The signature coffee in Hanoi is egg coffee, don’t forget to try it. Then, come to Phan Dinh Phung Street to immerse yourself in the romance of fallen leaves.

However, we believe that with the health of a traveler, you can conquer any obstacle!
