    Mosaic Wall

    Not only to protect the city from the Red River but also decorated the city life through the historical line with hundreds of pictures on the wall. However , not painted ,not carved but stuck to the wall by millions pieces of pottery . Was approved by UNESCO as the World longest mosaic wall .

    Long Bien Bridge

    Old quarter not only have Asian style but also the Western style. And the bridge is an example of that statement. Though 122 years , the bridge has witnessed the ups and downs of the city . There are something special about the bridge Left lane - Rusted steel beams . The bridge is quite long so we should only discover only 5 % but in a fantastic way ,the original way ,the railway.

    Long Bien Station

    You have been to the last point . An ancient train station located right next to the Long Bien Bridge. Not modern ,not too large ,only one train track ,located next to the bridge We would take a rest after a long walk in cool thick- walled station ,especially in hot summer days and there are vending machines with some beverages and restrooms. In here I could recommend you fantastic places , nice restaurants , direction
