Spring Strolls at Hanoi’s Temple of Literature

#springitinerary If you’re in Hanoi during spring, the Temple of Literature is a must. It’s like stepping into a peaceful, leafy time capsule in the middle of the city chaos. The weather’s just right, mild sun, light breeze, and flowers blooming everywhere (especially those bright red blossoms that look straight out of a painting). The temple itself is all about old-school charm, think ancient gates, stone turtles, and calm courtyards that make you want to slow down and just breathe. It’s Vietnam’s first university, so it’s got a smart, scholarly vibe, but also super chill. Great spot for pics, light exploring, or just finding a quiet corner to sit and zone out. In spring, the whole place feels extra magical. It’s not flashy, but it’s full of character. A perfect stop if you’re into history, gardens, or just peaceful places with a good story.
