English: Hoan Kiem Lake is where you can find locals jogging, enjoying a coffee and even practising Tai Chi and in Hanoi Old Quarter, Vietnam. This peaceful lake surrounds Ngoc Son Temple, an 18th century pagoda sitting in on a small island that’s accessible via an ornate wooden bridge. With so much activity all around, it was the tree branches leaning in the lake that caught my attention. The play of light and sun was superb that evening .
