The place the scholars took examination if not mistaken.
We went to visit the first university in Vietnam, Temple of Literature (according to the internet) after Ho Chi Minh mausoleum Well, the first time we walked into the place, we had this feeling that we were in those Chinese drama settings where all the scholars are taking examinations to serve the nation. It was incredible experience. And again, I wandered off somewhere else to take photos instead of listening. Instead of the buildings, you get to see some carving of literatures on stones too.
Pagoda in West Lake.
Temple in West Lake.
Gigantic tortoise in Hoan Kiam Lake.

Apparently Hanoi is famous of lakes. We visited West Lake and Hoan Kiam Lake. There are pagoda and temple by West Lake, however, Hoan Kiam Lake is an eye opener. Hoan Kiam Lake has literal meaning of Sword Lake which involves the tale of magical sword and tortoise. And if you think the tortoise is not real, please have a closer look. It is a preserved gigantic tortoise. Too bad, the tour guide said the chances to see a real one nowadays are way too slim. Trust me, it is very huge and it is a must to pay a visit if you are there.
