Thong Nhat (Lenin) Park

FreeLeashed only

One of Hanoi's largest green parks, surrounding Bay Mau Lake and known locally as Lenin Park, listed in Vietnam travel guides as a popular spot for walking dogs. Shaded paths circle the water past morning exercisers and lake cafes.

Why it made the list

Hanoi's classic dog-walking park: big, shady, free, and full of local dogs every morning and evening.

Good to know before you go

Vietnam pet-travel guides list Thong Nhat Park among Hanoi's dog-friendly green spaces; muzzling is recommended (not mandatory) and owners should keep public spaces clean. No formal published hours; the park is an open public space.

Practical notes

  • Go before 8 AM for cool air and company
  • The lake loop is the best shaded route

What is available on site

  • Water bowls
  • Shaded seating
