Both Hanoi and Siem Reap are amazing; you won’t be disappointed with either. In Hanoi, get lost in the Old Quarter, visit Uncle Ho and see the Temple of Literature and War Museum. Stay out overnight on a junk in Halong Bay. Siem Reap is magic, and not just for the Angkor temples. Visit the Blue Pumpkin, Bar Street and the Boom Boom Room. There’s eateries there that would not be out of place in Paris or New York. Phnom Penh was just a tad creepy in places for me but well worth a visit. Poipet on the Thai Cambodia border is highly recommended, but staying any longer than absolutely necessary is not!
