The charming Vietnamese capital has aged well, preserving the Old Quarter, monuments and colonial architecture, while making room for modern developments alongside. Hanoi may have shrugged off several former names, including Thang Long, or "ascending dragon," but it hasn't forgotten its past, as sites such as Ho Chi Minh's Mausoleum and Hoa Lo Prison attest. Lakes, parks, shady boulevards and more than 600 temples and pagodas add to the appeal of this city, which is easily explored by taxi.

Oil painting is the process of painting with pigments with a medium of drying oil as the binder. We D&C Art Gallery provide oil paintings at a meagre price, claiming about their originality. So, enjoy the purity and beauty of oil painting by replacing all the artificial decorative things from your home, office or your bedroom so that you can give your place unique and colourful look.
We bought 2 oil paintings during our stay in Hanoi. The D&C Art Gallery (many places in Hanoi) is the perfect place to buy paintings from different artists, the choice is wide enough to find the painting which will suit your home. When we came back in France, we received our paintings a few days after in a good condition. Two months later we decided to buy 2 more paintings WITHOUT seeing the originals, only the pictures that we received by email. We ordered on Monday and we received it on Friday (PayPal payment). We like very much the new paintings. We thank Mrs Bien for her efficacy and kindness.

This museum was opened in 1966. Though in need of updating, some interesting artifacts are on display in its three floors organized chronologically.
Perfect museum! Especially perfect on a hot day and if you want to do something relaxing, knowledgeable, fun and see some beautiful art. The first building has three floors available to view and the second building has four floors but there isn’t something on each floor. The basement area of the second building has pottery which is beautiful, then the top floor has authentic, tribal clothing and artifacts (it is a bit warmer in this building and on the top level but it’s worth seeing!) The first building is next to the ticket area (there is a gift shop inside) which is past the little coffee stand; this building has beautiful collections of paintings across different eras, oil paintings, statues and just amazing things. Spend time just relaxing and walking through- it’s a perfect activity and museum for anyone; solo, family or friends! Follow @travelingypsey on Instagram & GoogleMaps!
