From Vietnam Festival of Creativity & Design:
Tràng Tiền and surrounding roads such as Hàng Bài, Bà Triệu, Hàng Khay, etc. are familiar to most of us. As we stroll these streets, we will touch on the area’s development from the early days of Hanoi through the French period to the present time, exploring stories of culture, history and the memories hidden in the buildings, cinemas and theatres.
Hopefully the walk will bring you new ‘discoveries’ on these well-known streets of Hanoi. The route is simple: we will start from the steps of the Opera House, down Tràng Tiền towards Hoàn Kiếm lake, into Hàng Bài, towards Hàm Long and back up to Bà Triệu and Hàng Khay with a few interesting hidden diversions on the way.
