This globe is a feature in the Hoan Kiem Lake park of central Hanoi. This is a major tourist and recreation area of the city, filled with cultural and historical artefacts, and bars and restaurants.

The globe is depicted with a large, red, Vietnam, and held in place with two hands. Both Vietnam and Hanoi City are depicted prominently on the globe. I suspect that this globe was erected as part of the millennial (1010-2010) celebrations of the city.
