Name of Shop: Shopping Areas
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?

Hi Quell, Re the restaurant you would never have found: Noodle Shop, 9B Hoa Ma St. How do I find Clair of Hidden Hanoi? I'm going to Hanoi in May. Thx, suzanne.stephen@gmail.com | mvtouring Tue Apr 24, 2007 05:32 UTC
The one pillar pagoda is truly amazing ;-) | hooiluangoh Wed Apr 4, 2007 08:30 UTC
I would think USD15 spent in a market in Vietnam was horribly expensive. My experience in HCMC was that an excellent meal costs about USD 1 to USD 2 per person, unless we are eating in a international chain-restaurant at international prices. | maysue Sun Nov 19, 2006 09:17 UTC
Gosh! It looks very delicious! Yum Yum! |
