Each foreign tourist arrives
in Hanoi and when they return to their home, they all have an individual
impression. Hanoi is ancient and peaceful; Hanoi bustles and is full of
vitality; Hanoi has precise and unique gastronomy; Hanoi is brilliant with
colours; and Hanoi is passionate and charming.
| Common impressions for tourist
to easily recognize are the friendly, enthusiastic and hospitable people
of Hanoi. Living in California, US, Dr Gish chooses Hanoi capital as the
tourism destination for his family. He said that his family had visited
many famous landscapes, enjoyed traditional delicious dishes in Hanoi and
contacted many people. However, the most memorable impression for his family
was the vibrant vitality of Hanoi's traditional culture.
"Hanoi leaves good impressions
for me because the city has preserved its cultural heritages, for example,
Tortoise Tower in Sword Lake, daily life and business activities of inhabitants
in the Old Quarter. I think that Hanoi is trying to preserve its essential
cultural values of previous years and be determined to develop a modern
city at the same time," Dr Gish said. |

Sharing these thoughts with
Dr Gish, Mr. George Saxton also loves to visit historical sites in Hanoi.
For him, these are memorable places during his visit. "I'm sure to remember
Sword Lake, Ngoc Son Temple, the Temple of Literature, the house on stilts
where Uncle Ho lived and the whole area. I like the way the house on stilts
is preserved, that is what I remember about Hanoi."
For Ms Marcia of Maryland,
US, dishes like pho (noodle soup), cha ca (fried fish), rice vermicelli
and meat rolls or coffee in Hanoi are all wonderful but her most memorable
impression about Hanoi is completely different. It is the people and cultural
character of Hanoi. Hanoi's culture is charming and plentiful. One of the
most beautiful images among Asian countries she has ever seen is the image
of Vietnamese women in long-dresses and "any time I close my eyes I see
that image". "I also like the image of farmers growing rice in the fields,"
she happily said. That is what she remembers about Hanoi.

That is also the comments
of Ms Johnson from Idaho, US. She said that it is hard to use any word
to fully describe the people in Hanoi. Therefore, she has to come back
Hanoi many times. "Hanoi people are very wonderful and enthusiastic and
eager to help strangers. The first time we came to Hanoi was in 1995 we
were a little worried of not being welcomed, but unexpectedly every one
treated us very kindly. We were helped any time we needed assistance. We
had close friends and they treated us very well when we were there. We
can not talk all about the wonderful people in Viet Nam," Ms Johnson said.
Living in Hanoi for many
years, James Rhodes and his wife from Alabama, US, were eager to return
Hanoi in the autumn to welcome the capital's 1,000th birthday. |
Hanoi attracts him and his
wife with special things. "The thing we like most in Hanoi is the Viet
Nam National Symphony Orchestra. This is a wonderful orchestra. I must
say that we have listened to symphonies all over the world but the Viet
Nam National Symphony Orchestra is excellent.
| Additionally, in Hanoi,
the folk music is also good. This year, we come back to celebrate the 1,000
years of Thang Long - Hanoi and we don't intend to leave this city. We
choose to live in Hanoi because this is a cheap city and people there are
friendly. My wife and I decided to choose Hanoi as our home.
Mr. Steve Ball living in
Maine, US said that for him, Hanoi is an ancient city. Hanoi truthfully
reflects the culture of Viet Nam, this is a beautiful city for tourists
to visit, go for a walk and are welcomed. Mr. Steve always encourages his
friends to come to Hanoi.
"I want to send sincere congratulations
to all people of Hanoi capital on the occasion of the Hanoi's 1,000th birthday. |

I desire that Hanoi continues
to develop prosperously. I myself also expect to arrive in Hanoi
to share this happiness with the people in the capital about this event.
I wish the best things for Hanoi people. Good bye and see you in Viet Nam,"
he said on the occasion of Hanoi's 1,000th birthday.
