Beach near Hanoi, Vietnam

Hanoi Travel Guide

Vietnam

Hanoi is Vietnam’s capital and a city of more than 5.2 million people in the north of the country. It is the country’s political centre and a major base for exploring northern Vietnam.

Most international visitors arrive at Noi Bai International Airport (HAN), the airport serving Hanoi. The city is inland, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so a beach visit requires travelling farther afield.
