OLD QUARTER REVIEWHàng Chiếu
Original trade: Woven mats. The mat sellers' street, a short walk from the old East Gate of the citadel.
Like every street in this quarter, Hàng Chiếu 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.
