On Missing Hanoi

On Missing Hanoi

Hanoi offers a rare opportunity to witness old-world charm as it morphs with the future. The bare elements for sustenance—from the nomadic fruit seller to the street cart vendors—remain in the labyrinth tree-lined corridors of the French colonial Old Quarter, as they have for centuries. Meanwhile, if you open the Uber app in the Old Quarter, hundreds of little Uber-mopeds icons swarm like honeybees to your vicinity. But seeing the city of Hanoi is not complete without a drive out to the famous UNESCO Site, Ha Long Bay, to see first hand, the postcard perfect limestone isles of Ha Long Bay.

Top 5 Luxury Properties With Strong Wellness Quotient

New resorts and luxury properties are creating their own little havens of wellness, peace and tranquillity. They are competing with each other by introducing every possible element to soothe and calm the guests. In the midst of these much-in-demand oases, there are properties that focus more on wellness. By sheer virtue of their natural location, being surrounded by pristine backdrops and with the use of locally sourced materials, they have been following the wellness mantra much before wellness became a fashionable term. We look at five such luxury properties that have a strong wellness quotient inbuilt into their hospitality code. Rather it lies at the very centre of their “operations” and little wonder then that it has a steady and loyal clientele who come to them for their dose of wellness.
