The Old Town of Hanoi, Vietnam is a must-visit place for tourists. There are many attractions worth visiting in the Old Town, such as the Centenary Cathedral, Hoan Kiem Hu, souvenirs, literary youth shops, etc. Let’s go shopping with the rich man Bar!

St. Joseph's Cathedral

St. Joseph's Cathedral (Nhà thờ Chính tòa Thánh Giuse) was built in 1886 during the French colonial period. It has a very beautiful and solemn appearance. Unfortunately, it is blocked by a fence and cannot get closer.

When the rich man entered the cathedral, there was no gorgeous ceiling mural decoration, but the whole feeling was peaceful and simple. It also reminds the rich man of the century-old life on Bohol Island in the Philippines.Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception.

The rich man likes this KFC very much, which is located on the shore of Hoan Kiem Lake. It is very grand and has a small ring in front. It feels like a five-star hotel. I wonder if the fried chicken they sell is particularly delicious (laughs).

Finally, the rich man and his family had dinner at a nearby outdoor restaurant.

The Vietnamese pho set meal comes with a free Coke, which costs about NT$100 and tastes quite average. Sitting in the open-air seats and watching the pedestrians coming and going on the street gives you a special leisurely feeling.

rich man experience

The rich man really likes the feeling of walking by Hoan Kiem Lake. Although there are many cars and busy roads around the lake, it is in sharp contrast to the people walking by the lake. It has a very Hanoi flavor, and the nearby buildings are also very distinctive. It is decorated with many gorgeous neon lights. It is really recommended to take a walk here.
