A slow steady pace will get you across the street!
A majority of the street names in the Old Quarter start with the word hang. Hang means merchandise or shop. It used to be that if you were looking to buy a certain craft, you could head to the street with the name of what you were looking for and find it. Today, this is no longer the case. However, if you look hard enough, you will find what you’re looking for.
What to buy: Silk is an excellent item to buy here.
What to pay: How good are you at bartering?
Theme: Local Craft
