New form of Old street in Vietnam

Written by tinhvht 12 months ago  
Long ago, each street in Vietnam’s capital, Hanoi, specialized in a specific trade, as artisans from villages in the red river delta settled in the capital to supply wares to the royal citadel of Thang Long.

Most Vietnamese people are familiar with this verse
Let’s travel around Thang Long citadel,
All around its 36 streets
Hang Bo, Hang Bac, Hang Gai
Hang Buom, Hang Thiec, Hang Bai
Hang Khay….

Today Hanoi is much bigger than it was in the past, when the old quarter contained 36 specialized guild streets. In many streets, the mossy, tiled-roof houses have been replaced by tall, modern buildings, while the skyline is full of signs and billboards. Nonetheless, the city’s ancient spirit lingers.
