"Though it is often overlooked when discussing the best solo trips for women, Vietnam's capital is generally a safe place for travelers," it said. The magazine recommended must-see destinations in Hanoi such as the St. Joseph's Cathedral, the Temple of Literature, and Ngoc Son Temple, among others. According to Tripzilla, Hanoi is also a budget-friendly destination for solo travelers, with a night's stay at a luxury hotel costing around 150 USD, and meals around 10 USD per day./.
