Learn what not to wear in Hanoi to respect local customs and stay comfortable while visiting the city’s cultural attractions.
Revealing clothing refers to garments that expose a significant amount of skin or cling tightly to the body, highlighting the wearer’s figure. This type of clothing often includes items such as short skirts, shorts, tank tops, low-cut tops, crop tops, and any other attire that might be considered too revealing for certain cultural or social contexts, not to wear.
Avoid wearing short skrits
Vietnamese culture
Comfortable clothing
Heavy or Thick Fabrics
Heavy or thick fabrics refer to materials that are dense and have substantial weight, often making them less breathable and more insulating. These fabrics are typically used in colder climates to provide warmth but can be uncomfortable in hot and humid environments like Hanoi.
Cotton clothing
High heels
High heels refer to shoes where the heel is significantly elevated above the toes. They come in various styles, including stilettos, pumps, wedges, and platform heels. While high heels can add a fashionable touch to an outfit, they can be impractical and uncomfortable in many situations to wear, especially when traveling in a city like Hanoi.
Comfortable shoes
Jewelry
Expensive jewelry or accessories refer to items that are valuable and often made from precious metals, gemstones, or other high-value materials. These can include watches, rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings, and other adornments that have significant monetary worth. While these items can enhance an outfit, wearing them in certain situations, especially when traveling, can pose risks. For example:
Colorful clothes
Bright and flashy colors refer to garments that are very vivid, eye-catching, and sometimes neon in hue. These colors can be visually striking and are often used to make a bold fashion statement. While these colors can be fun and expressive, they might not be suitable for all occasions and settings, especially when traveling in a culturally rich and traditional city like Hanoi. For example:
Pastel clothes
When visiting Hanoi, dressing appropriately is not just about comfort but also about showing respect for the local culture and traditions. Avoiding revealing clothing, heavy fabrics, high heels, expensive accessories, bright colors, and inappropriate attire for religious sites will help ensure a pleasant and respectful experience. By following these guidelines, you’ll be able to enjoy the beauty and history of Hanoi while respecting its cultural norms.
Remember, dressing appropriately not only enhances your experience but also demonstrates respect for the local culture, making your visit to Hanoi more meaningful and enjoyable to wear.

We went on a private trip to Vietnam and Cambodia, the whole trip plan was organized for us by the Impress Travel Company from Vietnam, the company did an amazing job, the whole trip was organized in a wonderful way with an amazing match between the various parties, their choices were correct and the quality of the hotels chosen were very high quality and it is important to note that the price was low in comparison To other agencies, thanks to Impress Travel and especially to Daniel who was tolerant and open to changes and organized the route for us.
Impress travel were amazing. Did my bookings with Daniel for our tour of Vietnam and I must say Daniel was very professional and prompt with his services. All the arrangement, plans, pick-up & drop-off services, hotels, vehicles, sightseeing tours and guides were spot on and excellent. Did 4 nights Hanoi, 1 night Hà Long Bay cruise, 3 nights Hoian, 4 nights Saigon and 1 night in Can Tho. It was totally awesome. Every part of the journey was superbly arranged and planned. I will highly recommend Impress Travel for anyone interested in visiting Vietnam. Very organized and reliable!
I booked with Impress Travel in July. My contact person was Tommy Thang. He is an amazing person. He was very helpful. He changed my program twice for me. Very accommodating!
We started our holiday in the north (Sapa)of Vietnam and travelled down to HCMC.
The tour was fantastic, Tommy's arrangements were to the"T".
I will always use them if I have to visit the area again and recommend them to one and all.
Thank you once again Mr.Tommy and the Impress Team.

We want to thanks Thuy the tour guide and especially Mark from Impress Travel for his great service and assurance throughout our trip. We’ll definitely use his service for other tour packages in other parts of Vietnam.
