Crowded but unforgettable
Yes it's busy, but Ngoc Son Temple is busy for a reason. Stay 1, 2 hours, bring small cash, and try the local food nearby.

Better than expected
Honestly thought Ngoc Son Temple would be a tourist trap, but it really delivered. Highlight of our days in Hanoi.

Great for families
Took the kids to Ngoc Son Temple and they loved it. Plenty of space, lots to see, and reasonable prices. Will come back.
