Tourist attractions near Hai Phong and Ha Noi?

I'm planning to go to Vietnam next year. What tourist attractions do you recommend that are in/near Hai Phong and Ha Noi?
I know of Ha Long bay already...any others?
Thanks

Hai Phong has a good beach (I say good because it's not the best beach in Vietnam). Near Hanoi, you can go to Ninh Binh (Hoa Lu - Tam Coc) and Sapa.

Tam Coc means three caves, also called Halong-Bay-On-Land:

Sapa is a picturesque village that lies on the Hoang Lien Son mountain range near the Chinese border in NW Vietnam. You can see many hill tribe people, their villages, rice terraces, lush vegetation, and Fansipan, highest peak in Vietnam...
