Parks & Nature

The statue of Ly Thai To is situated in a nice garden overlooking Hoan Kiem lake (also called Sword lake). In 1010, King Ly Thai To moved the capital from Hoa Lu to Thang Long (now Hanoi). Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, in Vietnamese is actually two words - “Ha” and “Noi”. Ha means 'river' and Noi means 'inner'. Ha Noi therefore means "Rivers Inner", so called because it is located between the Red River and Nhue River.
