thap rua tower

The turtle tower is located in the middle of Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi. The tower is small and exquisite with a star on the top. It is said that there are still giant tortoises living in the lake, and those who see it will be lucky. Unfortunately, I didn't see it, otherwise I have to take a few photos.

This is a small and old tower located in the middle of the lake. There is no bridge to pass, so you can only look at it from the lake. This is a good example of how it would be useful to have a better camera than iPhone 6. When walking in this beautiful lake, you can't help but see the center and admire this small tower (turtle tower). It will be more beautiful at night, because the night lighting will make it alive.

In the center of Hoan Kiem Lake in Hanoi, there is a very conspicuous building, which looks like a temple or an archway, and has the feeling of a mini church. The locals are called Turtle Tower. When there is no light during the day, the color looks different. It is not very conspicuous. When the lights are turned on at night, the red lights and spotlights are reflected very beautifully.

The iconic building in the center of Hoan Kiem Lake, an old small tower. When I returned to Hanoi, I was eating rice noodles. I pointed to the map and asked the store. After clarifying the directions, I knew that I was not far from Hoan Kiem Lake. So I gave up the store’s suggestion that I take the bus and walked forward and watched the opera houses and museums along the way. A series of tall, elegant and representative French buildings. Return to Hoan Kiem Lake under the scorching sun at noon, walking, sitting, chatting, reading or meditating in twos and threes under the dense shade of the trees, a leisurely scene.
