Thu Le Park
Thu Le Park is located in Ba
Dinh district, Hanoi. It is one of the places that attract many Hanoians,
particularly children and teenagers on their holidays. This is also a
resort for domestic and international tourists.
There is a lake, many green
trees and a zoo in Thu Le Park. The water is very clear. There are many
animals. It is very Thu Le.
There is an old temple with
the deep hollow note of the bell in a quite corner of the Park. This is
also an interesting place for visitors.
Thu Le will give you much
comfort after having visited it. If you go there once, I am sure that you
will desire to visit it again. It is the Thu Le of Hanoi today.
