Hanoi is by far one of the best places to shoot in all of Southeast Asia. You could snap photos in Hanoi, Vietnam every day for a month and never tire of it. Fuel yourself with some bowls of pho and bun cha along the way and you’ve got the perfect recipe for creativity.
The Old Quarter is the heart and soul of the city, people have inhabited these narrow streets and alleys for over a thousand years. You can sense the history as you wander through the maze of it all.
