After breakfast, begin your visit to Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum (closed on Monday and Friday, Oct. and Nov.). Next stop is the nearby Temple of Literature, Vietnam's first royal university built in the 12th century.
In the late afternoon, there are options to visit the Museum of Ethnology, which has an extensive display dedicated to Vietnam's 54 Ethnic minority peoples (or Hanoi Hilton prison, Amy Museum, History Museum, Fine Art Museum). Later on, you will be transferred to the town to take a pedicab trip around Hoan Kiem Lake and the Old Quarter for some great fun. Add brilliance to your trip by attending a Water Puppet Show in the afternoon, a favorite experience for all visitors to Vietnam.
