Impressive Upside Down Pyramid in Hanoi


Toward 1000th anniversary Thang Long - Hanoi, many marvelous architectural works were built to enhance our Hanoi - the heart of Vietnam, such as: Inaugurated Peaceful Park, Hanoi Museum, ceramic road, Ho uncle statue,... However, Hanoi Museum which impressed me the most has not only the unique architecture but also the great historical value.

In opening day ( 6 October, 2010), there were thousands of people waiting for visiting Hanoi Museum that is the biggest museum in Vietnam with reverse pyramid shape; total square is 54.000 m2, height 30 m, including 4 floors and 2 basements. This is the first architecture in Vietnam which has used modern equipment and technology in construction field.

With 50.000 artifacts from Ly, Tran, Le, Nguyen dynastic to now, visitors can live with the long history of Hanoi. Outstanding of lobby, there is the letter in bronze picture which will be opened after 100 years. The third floor is the most noticeable place in the museum because there are many precious objects from many private collections such as: Dong Son bronze drum, Bat Trang ceramic, Ly - Mac dynastic bronze..

In its courtyard, organized the landscaped exhibitions with various kinds, we walked around and took breathtaking pictures.
