After five months of paving natural stones to replace dilapidated bricks, Hoan Kiem Lake at the heart of Hanoi has been given a facelift, which is a pleasant surprise for many residents. According to the legend that dates back to the 15th century, King Le Thai To found a holy turtle during a cruise on the then Luc Thuy, or Green Lake. The turtle told the king to return the sacred sword that had helped him defeat the northern Ming aggressors, now that peace had returned. Le Thai To unsheathed his sword and threw it to the turtle. He later named the lake "Hoan Kiem" (Lake of Returned Sword). (Photo: VietnamPlus)
