Dong Xuan market
Dong Xuan Market has long been a tourist attraction in Hanoi, thanks to its prime location in the heart of this city as well as the impressive architecture and history. Coming to Dong Xuan Market, you can find a wide range of commodities from fabric, clothing, local handicrafts, souvenirs and street foods. Read on to explore all the specific things about Dong Xuan Market. I will also take you to unseen angles to learn more about history & local architecture.
Long Bien bridge
The Long Bien bridge across the Red River connects Hanoi with the main port of Haiphong. Designed by Gustave Eiffel, the bridge sustained significant damage during the Vietnam War. Only half of the bridge retains its original shape, but a rebuilding project supported by the French government is currently in progress to restore the bridge to its original appearance.

Hanoi Tour Reviews
“Bike / food tour review ”
When I first arrived in Hanoi, my preferred mode of transportation would be walk or use a Grab car to go from point A to B. When I started the tour, it was a bit rocky for me to keep my balance, as I wasn't very familiar with motorbikes. However, I had nothing to worry about, as Nhung was a safe driver.If anything, the motorbike tours have not only improved my confidence but also enhanced my overall mindset and experience in Vietnam. Now, I can't get enough of using a Grab bike instead of a car. During the food tour with Nhung, I found one of the best banh mi in Hanoi, which I hadn't found anywhere else during my travels in Vietnam.
“Best Tour Guide in Vietnam!”
Nhung gave us the absolute best tour of Hanoi. We ate wonderful Vietnamese food & went to many historical sites and went to train street! She was flexible with our many requests and just provided an overall excellent experience. Would recommend her 1000 times.

“Great tour”
During Nhung tours my main highlight was when I unexpectedly forgot my hat at the Den Hang Bo, and was invited by the people running the temple to have tea and cake. It goes to show the nice hospitality of the people, when the unexpected occurs. Next time I come back, I will visit Ha Long Bay and Ninh Binh with Nhung.

It is my great honor to be your tour guide for Hidden Hanoi walking tour and it was such a fabulous chance that we had a talk with local ladies in a local temple for the birthday of local God. I am so excited to welcome you back for another fabulous trip to Ninh Binh and HaLong Bay. With my best regards from Hanoi, Nhung Rose
