Hanoi’s history dates back almost one thousand
years. During that time it has witnessed numerous incursions from
China, seen a host of Vietnamese emperors come and go and at one time
go even lose its status as the nation’s capital. The city’s temples and
pagodas and the religious practices performed reflect a strong Chinese
influence. For nearly 800 years Hanoi was the home of various royal
dynasties until Hue became the new imperial capital in 1802. With the
coming of the French at the end of the 19th century the city gained a
new lease of life. This European influence can still be seen in the
elegant colonial buildings that line the broad tree-lined boulevards of
much of the city. Today the capital has a population approaching 4
million people; yet it still has the feeling of a small town,
particularly in and around the Old Quarter.
