Along the
36 streets of
Old Quater, each street is specialised in selling for particular product. Like this street, it's just selling for all kinds of
cigarates. Then, the next street is just selling
spec/glasses, another street is selling
inner wears,
sport shoes,
groceries... Everywhere is tour agencies and hotels.

The summer in Hanoi is very hot. We simply rested to have
Sinh To (shakes). So many kind of flavours, eg:
tomato,
avocado,
mangosteen,
guave,
durian... Price ranges from
10,000VND to
20,000VND. We gotta try out one time sitting on litte chair at road side '冒街'.

Water Puppet (水上木偶) show at
Thang Long Puppet theatre. Some of the visitors fell asleep because everybody had been walking all day long and finally could sit down here to relax. The story of this show was about the life of vietnamese in a village, working in paddy field, lion dancing, fish catching, etc.
