OLD QUARTER REVIEWHàng Bè
Original trade: Timber rafts, now food market. Named for the timber rafts of the Red River trade, now a fresh food market street.
Like every street in this quarter, Hàng Bè began as a guild street of old Thang Long, where one craft or one trade gathered on one street and gave the street its name. Our full street story, filmed on location with Suzy, is in production for the channel.
