Hanoi preserves Old Quarter space
PANO – Located in the Old Quarter, the heritage houses at No.38 Hang Dao and No.87 Ma May streets are the architectural landmarks of Hanoi.
To better preserve the Old Quarter space, Hanoi has conducted a restoration project for these two houses while making the spaces more attractive to tourists with handicrafts. The two heritage houses display traditional lacquer products, featuring images of famous streets and spots of Hanoi, such as Long Bien Bridge, the Turtle Tower.
