Then my best friend suggested I visit Hoan Kiem Lake. I was so excited with his idea that I decided to go there the next day with my family.

When we came there, we were immediately in love with the beautiful scenery around the lake. However, what I personally liked most about Hoan Kiem Lake was its lively vibes. People there were always moving, chatting and smiling. Everyone seemed to enjoy their moments. That was the only time I went to Hoan Kiem lake. Up until now, I have always wanted to go back there another time, but I haven’t got the chance. Looking back, I don’t regret the trip to Hoan Kiem Lake at all.
