3. A well-known historic street in central Hải Phòng City. Originally named Avenue Paul Doumer during the colonial period, locals have long referred to it as Cầu Đất, a name dating back to when a small earthen bridge once spanned a canal between the An Biên and Gia Viên villages—hence “Cầu Đất” or “Earth Bridge”

About Hanoi

Hanoi, Vietnam's capital, mixes lakeside temples, French colonial boulevards and an Old Quarter where street food and scooters fill every lane.

The Old Quarter's narrow streets, each once devoted to a single trade, sit just north of Hoan Kiem Lake, where the red Huc Bridge leads to the Temple of the Jade Mountain. Wander at dawn to see tai chi by the water, or after dark when the pavements fill with food stalls and low plastic stools.
