The motorbike's engine thrums beneath you as Hanoi unfurls—narrow alleys, scooter rivers, and the sudden hush of temple courtyards. You move with the city: ducking past vendors, crossing boulevards where traffic negotiates itself, and pausing at street-side stalls where steam rises from bowls of pho and bun cha grills smoke into the air.
