Vietnam: city games
A City Game turns a walk through a city in Vietnam into a self-guided game. You follow a route on your smartphone, solve puzzles at real landmarks and pick up the stories behind the streets as you go. City Games in Vietnam are played in Hanoi.
You decide when to start. Stop for a coffee or a museum visit and continue whenever you like. A game usually takes 1.5 to 2 hours and covers 3 to 4 km on foot, which makes it an easy way to see the highlights of a city in Vietnam in a single afternoon.

Hanoi moves around its lakes. The old quarter is a grid of streets that were once guilds, so one lane still sells tin, another silk and another votive paper, and the coffee comes with egg on top. Hoan Kiem lake closes to traffic at the weekend and fills with families, while the French quarter adds boulevards, the opera house and shaded cafés.
Crossing the street works by walking steadily so the scooters can flow around you. Summers are hot and wet; mornings and evenings are the comfortable slots. Compare all City Games or browse all our destinations to pick your next city.
