Vietnam War: Uncovering Hanoi's Untold Stories

Hanoi during the Vietnam War: the dark side of its most famous monuments. Discover life under the planned economy, the fate(s) of the local people from both sides (the North and the South; and the story of the unification of Vietnam, a country once divided between the communist and anti-communist, on the brink of the COLD WAR. Our "stroll" will last about 2.5 hours, with a short taxi ride halfway through. The aim of my walk is to make you discover specific areas of Hanoi (far away from the tourist's eyes) in the light of aspects of our city's rich history that are rarely touched upon by guidebooks, with in-depth information (history buffs welcome) but in a relaxed and joyful atmosphere. A conversation, rather than a lecture! Places we will visit: - Cho Gioi: historic black market - Kham Thiem: the B52 memorial - Hanoi Train Street community Note: 20% of the profit will be donated to the Vietnam Association for Victims of Agen Orange/Dioxin and Blue Dragon's Children Foundation.
