I’m going to describe Hoan Kiem Lake, which means "The Lake of the Returned Sword", in Hanoi.  According to legend, Emperor Le Loi handed a magic sword called Heaven's Will which brought him victory in his revolt against the Chinese Ming Dynasty back to the Golden Turtle God in the lake and hence gave the lake its present name. The Tortoise Tower erected on a small island near the center of the lake is linked to the legend. Nowadays, the lake is one of the major scenic spots in the city and serves as a focal point for its public life.  

I like the lake not only because it is special in history but also because the water in the lake is not commonly found in other lakes elsewhere in the country. It’s greenish with dark or light shade depending on the reflection of the sky. Also, if you are lucky, you will catch sight of some giant tortoises rising out of the water. Last but not least, I like it because it is so romantic. When the darkness takes over, you can see couples holding hands walking side by side along the lake, trying to breathe in the breeze of a summer night or keep warm against the winter cold. 

If you have time and really want to observe Hanoi’s life, sit down on one of the stone benches, enjoy the view, and have a good talk with some local friends over an ice cream cone.
