Cheap flights to Hanoi

The capital of Vietnam is renowned for its beautiful centuries-old architecture and diverse culture that stems from French, Chinese and Southeast Asian influences. With a population of four million, this is a great destination to visit to immerse yourself in the culture of Vietnam and learn more about its traditions and heritage. With a high density of buildings in close proximity to each other, there are many opportunities to explore the city by foot. Vietnam's capital is situated on the banks of the Red River, around 100 kilometres from the river's mouth. The river is a vital part of life here, with human settlements dating back as far as the 3rd century BC.

Hanoi was renamed from Thang Long in 1831 when Hue was the capital of Vietnam. The fusion of Asian and French culture gives the city a unique charm that creates a one-of-a-kind feel and atmosphere. The pulsating heart is the bustling Old Quarter region, with streets lined by market stalls. There's plenty to see and do in Hanoi, including The Imperial City of Thang Long, an architectural relic of Vietnam's rich history and culture, which has now been recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The splendid cultural diversity and excellent attractions make Hanoi an ideal destination for people of all walks of life.
