Hanoi, with its diverse culinary treasures built on a thousand-year cultural foundation, has transformed cuisine into a part of the cultural industry, with various measures being taken to promote its brand and elevate the status of the capital city's cuisine. Last year, TripAdvisor recognised Hanoi among the top 15 cities with the world's most appealing cuisines, on par with Naples (Italy), Athens (Egypt), Barcelona (Spain), Paris (France), Bangkok (Thailand), and Kyoto (Japan). In addition, the World Culinary Awards honoured Hanoi in two categories, including the World's Leading Culinary Destination and Asia's Leading Culinary Destination. VNA/Photo by courtesy
