WEATHER
Hanoi
Hanoi is currently experiencing the early chills of winter, with temperatures averaging between 10 and 18 degrees Celsius. The high humidity level of around 70% makes it feel colder than the thermometer indicates. Additionally, a wind speed of approximately 15 km/h can deter some travelers from venturing out, particularly to the suburbs or mountainous areas by motorbike. Warm clothing such as wool sweaters, coats, scarves, and sturdy footwear are essential. For those who prefer to explore on two wheels, winter ear muffs, insulated hats, and windbreakers are highly recommended.
