Speaking of Hanoi, Time Out commented: “The charm of modern, youthful Hanoi is that the past is never far away. In the Old Quarter, the Dong Kinh Co Nhac group breathes new life into ancient silk string instruments, while across the city at Hanoi Rock City, emerging local bands dominate packed dance floors. 100km south in the Mai Chau mountains, the Equation ‘rave in a cave’ festival, now in its seventh year, is increasingly attracting international attention. Hanoi’s fashion scene is equally dynamic – designers are turning ethnic minority fabrics into globally revered couture , drawing on centuries-old silk traditions.”

Hanoi was rated the most affordable city for arts and culture on the list, with 82% of locals rating the Vietnamese capital highly for affordability. Walking Street was the most recommended of all the city's cultural activities in Time Out's survey.

Hanoi currently leads the country in the number of tangible and intangible cultural heritages with thousands of relics, festivals, and craft villages, many of which have been recognized by UNESCO.
