summarise it in a way a 12 yearold would Hồ Hoàn Kiếm also known as "Lake of the Returned Sword" or "Lake of the Restored Sword" in English. It is a freshwater lake with green water that has a story connected to it, the story is about a magical Turtle lending a Holy sword to a commander of the Vietnamese army to come on top of the strong Chinese army
.         The reason I like to go to the lake is because of the night life and the night market. When I was in pre-k till 3rd grade everyday my parents would visit Hồ Hoàn Kiếm with me, the night market was the most memorable part of my visit’s but let me explain what the night market is, it is a market spanning around 15-30 minutes of walking it also goes both ways. It was memorable because every time we went everything would be different and as a kid it exited me and surprised me on the new items, I saw every day and every night.
         The atmosphere there was as warm as a blanket and as lively as a party it has a lot of kids playing around and teen going out. The people there are very talented because it is a place where artists would draw people skillfully and cooks cooking wonderfully. And with restaurants around every corner so of course there was a very strong smell of European and Asian dishes. There was a house or a temple in the middle of the lake it is called the magical Turtles house and no one is allowed on it.
I love Hồ Hoàn Kiếm for it’st lively atmosphere, the talented people there and the night market. I cant explane more of my love to this lake and why I cant understand that this isn’t everyone’s favorite place in Hà Nội. I’m also so thankfull for my parents  giving me a chance to explore the lake everyday and not just leaving me home alone.
