Hanoi's Museums

Hanoi is a city of art.  The galleries are astounding, and and chock full of stunning paintings and lacquer paintings by local artists.  The museums had less interesting paintings on the whole, but did house some interesting statues and Cham artefacts, as well as typical arts and crafts from the many ethnic groups in Vietnam.
