Hanoi, the city of ancient buildings,
tourist destinations imbued with 

00:00:06.283 --> 00:00:09.729 
historical culture, has just been
honored by a prestigious American travel 

00:00:09.729 --> 00:00:13.489 
magazine in the list of 50 most
beautiful cities in the world. 

00:00:14.129 --> 00:00:18.587 
This recognition not only brings joy but
also deep pride to every Vietnamese 

00:00:18.587 --> 00:00:22.358 
citizen, especially those who have
dedicated their whole lives to the 

00:00:22.358 --> 00:00:23.729 
thousand-year-old land of civilization. 

00:00:23.729 --> 00:00:28.189 
More than 60 years witnessing the ups
and downs of the capital with Mrs. 

00:00:28.189 --> 00:00:33.287 
Nguyen Thi Le Tuyet in Giang Vo ward,
Hanoi today, although she has put on a 

00:00:33.287 --> 00:00:37.109 
modern look, the core cultural values
are still preserved intact over time. 

00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:43.079 
I was born and raised in Hanoi. Our
Hanoi in the past was very beautiful, 

00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:45.319 
elegant but also simple and rustic. 

00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:51.139 
Up to now, Hanoi has been developed,
with many architectural works. 

00:00:51.439 --> 00:00:55.759 
I am a resident of Hanoi, so I am very
proud of Hanoi's development. 

00:00:56.087 --> 00:01:01.941 
I am very proud to be a Hanoi person,
and I am also very proud that Hanoi has 

00:01:01.941 --> 00:01:03.567 
been recognized by the world. 

00:01:04.067 --> 00:01:10.341 
Besides the people of Hanoi, there are
houses of ancient times that are very 

00:01:10.341 --> 00:01:13.927 
ancient, further honoring the beauty
of Hanoi city. 

00:01:14.728 --> 00:01:18.992 
Not only occupying the affection of
indigenous people, Hanoi in the eyes of 

00:01:18.992 --> 00:01:21.944 
international friends is also a
fascinating destination, where intimacy 

00:01:21.944 --> 00:01:24.568 
and the boiling rhythm
of life intertwine strangely. 

00:01:26.986 --> 00:01:30.343 
The energy from the people here, the
bustle, and delicious food are the 

00:01:30.343 --> 00:01:32.666 
reasons why my husband and I returned to Hanoi. 

00:01:33.146 --> 00:01:35.386 
Hanoi has a different beauty compared to my country. 

00:01:35.846 --> 00:01:38.826 
It has ancient houses and
impressive cultural tourist attractions. 

00:01:39.346 --> 00:01:42.770 
Of course, in the future I will continue
to return to Hanoi to 

00:01:42.770 --> 00:01:44.086 
experience the wonderful things here. 

00:01:44.898 --> 00:01:48.435 
Besides the system of relics and
symbolic works, the sophisticated 

00:01:48.435 --> 00:01:52.679 
culinary culture and the warmth of the
people have become perfect pieces 

00:01:52.679 --> 00:01:56.923 
creating a Hanoi full of charm, enough
to hold anyone's feet when 

00:01:56.923 --> 00:01:58.338 
visiting the capital once.
