Hanoi's night economy brightens up
Hanoi's night economy brightens up
Visitors enjoy Hanoi's nightlife charm and street meals when walking or on motorcycle food tours.
Hanoi looks more vibrant and attractive at night.
Many streets in Hanoi are lightened up at night and become crowded as of 19pm when people and visitors flock to the downtown, enjoying a bustling atmosphere with plenty of shops and amenities including restaurants, bars, and supermarkets.
Trang Tien Street, located by iconic Hoan Kiem Lake, is well-known for the namesake popsicle, book stores, and paint shops, while Hang Ngang, Hang Dao, Hang Gai, Hang Bong, and Hang Ma streets are seen as ideal destinations for shopaholics and Ta Hien is dubbed the beer street for its street food and drought beer. These streets are making up an animated Hanoi Old Quarter when the night falls.
Sitting on the sidewalks in tiny plastic stools by a street eatery, the barriers of language, culture, and eating habits seem blurry.
