I recently looked up
Our Man in Hanoi, to catch up on the latest chatter. He makes some interesting comments on the city; interesting because they reflect the views that I have heard from many others that have fallen under its magical spell.
In his blog, Steve wrote "
People will tell you that Venice, Rome or Paris are the most romantic cities in the world. It's not true. Hanoi takes the title hands down. All around the lake are hugging couples, staring out across the water.
This wave of romance hits you. It's the bizarre paradox of Hanoi that between the crowds, the scooters, the bleeping horns and the street vendors, this city is one of the most tranquil I have ever been to."
By the way,
