Hanoi Duong Lam Ancient Village Full Day Tour with Lunch
About This Experience
As you step off the dusty path and into the ancient village of Duong Lam, the scent of freshly brewed coffee wafts through the air, mingling with the scent of frangipani and the sound of children's laughter carries on the breeze. The crumbling red-tiled roofs and weathered wooden facades of the village's ancient homes seem to lean in, as if sharing secrets of a bygone era. This guided tour takes you on a journey through the narrow streets and alleys of the village, where you'll visit the iconic Mong Phu Temple and the 13th-century Phung Hung Temple, marvel at the ancient well and the village's imposing gate. You'll have the opportunity to try traditional Vietnamese tea and snacks, and learn about the village's rich history and culture from a knowledgeable local guide. Lunch is served at a local family's home, where you can enjoy a delicious, home-cooked meal in a cozy setting. This tour is perfect for history buffs and culture enthusiasts, who will appreciate the village's unique blend of ancient traditions and modern charm. To make the most of your day, be sure to bring comfortable walking shoes and a hat to protect yourself from the sun.
