On the way to Ba Dinh District

Ba Dinh district is the main tourist attraction in Hanoi where several principal sights located here. We decided to walk to here after a short rest in Hotel. It was a bad idea, as the weather was steamily hot. But it's not too far away from Hanoi Old Quarter (Hoan Kiem District).

Traffic in Hanoi mostly built up by motorcycles and bikes, but in Ba Dinh district, more car could be seen. The boulevards here were nicely planted and covered by big trees, provided a much needed shade during summer.
