Commercial Buildings and the Office

Surprisingly, despite a small company, the office in Hanoi is decorated with various paintings...
 the below was claimed to be coated with gold!
on another side of the wall, 3 paintings hung side-by-side 
 the antz!
 a closer view of my fav piece of art...
 and the 'ancient coin' painting at the entrance!
 it seems that the boss is also a re-seller of paintings...with some ranging up to 20K USD per piece!
i wonder which one is that?
 
 outside the building, while waiting for the taxi back to hotel...my itchy hand snapped a few pictures...
Hanoi is an artistic place, even their tiles are colourful and nice looking!
 their buildings are not too commercial...with some being SoHo
 just like this office-cum-residential building
 there are also some new ones which looks modern, like the one below...
 and some colonial buildings built during the pre-war era
 as mentioned, Hanoi is a very artistic place, even the internal flooring has tiles with paintings on it!
 this place is really full of surprise and varieties...
 finally, the bird-eye view of the city from the office...it was hazy on that day....or should i say the city is hazy all the time???
there goes my 2-day trip in Hanoi city...
