Hanoi in five emoji

What each emoji refers to

🛕

The Temple of Literature was Vietnam's first university, founded in 1070.

🥟

Bánh cuốn, steamed rice rolls, are a Hanoi breakfast rather than a snack.

🎎

Water puppetry began in the flooded rice fields of the Red River delta.

🚲

Bicycles gave way to scooters, and the Old Quarter traffic has to be crossed slowly and without stopping.

🌿

Hoan Kiem lake sits in the centre, with tree-lined boulevards left from the French period.
