NIGHTLIFE AND THE ARTS
The nightlife in Hanoi is an active nightlife generally divided in to two
subcategories. There are the quieter bars which are generally enjoyed by a
slightly older and mellower crowd. There may be live entertainment at these
bars but it is generally played at a level which allows for conversation in the
bar. The other side of the nightlife is made up of the bustling clubs of the
area, clubs which have at least one dance floor and DJ-based music or live bands
playing so loud that dancing takes the place of conversation.
