Although the lake is beautiful during the day time, it really comes alive at night and especially on the weekend when they close the road to cars....so fascinating to watch the area come alive.

From friday afternoon till sunday evening, all roads around the lake are closed off for traffic. It looks like half of Hanoi goes out for a stroll. We loved it!
Beautiful day or night, park surroundings full of locals hanging out, playing games & enjoying the lovely lake. Loads of cafes along the lake
Beautiful place to stroll around. Plenty of eateries around. Great place to people watch. Nice to just relax.
Recommend to walk around the lake in the afternoon, after 3pm, to enjoy the scenery and watch local people doing taichi. Best to visit the lake at the weekend, from Friday evening to midnight on Sunday, when cars and motorbikes are not allowed to drive...More
Nice to walk around the lake day time, although it is a little bit warm. Evening time a lot of people around walking, eating, playing....a real relaxing lake to walk and " flane".....Recommanded especially evening time.
The lake & surrounding gardens were much better than I expected. It provides some welcome respite from the busy streets around it. At night it really comes to life when it's all lit up.
This lake has a pretty cool story and is worth seeing. Enjoyed going to the temple in the middle and seeing the turtle.
