Report This2.Shopping experience in Hanoi
Submitted by:Travelparadissa

SHOPPING EXPERIENCE IN HANOI - VIETNAMIt's a capital of Vietnam and it's coming to its one thousandth birthday anniversary. It's surely colorful and beautiful. Apart from the history and the French legacy that can be seen in the city there's something else that you have to make sure you don't miss: The joy of shopping in Hanoi.The 3.2 million-people city is divided into several sections with the central two are the Old Quarter and the French Quarter. While the French Quarter is full of French houses building and green trees then the Old Quarter is the trading center and the most dynamic part of the city. The Old Quarter is also the most touristy part of the city.Back to time a thousand year ago when the city was founded artisans from different parts of Vietnam gathered near the King's palaces in order to supply their merchandise. As time went on those who did the same kind of trade moved closer to each other to find partnership. Interestingly from that on the city began to witness the birth of many merchandise names like the Oil street the Mat street the Salt street...But who goes here to buy Oil nor Salt. And more over only some streets here retain the old merchandise the others have changed or combined with other kinds of trade. In fact what Ha Noi is famous for in term of shopping include: Embroidery painting lacquered paintings and and lacquer wares galleries and silk.Embroidery painting: It may take several months for one skillful worker to make a 50*50 cm painting of this kind. His work revolves around the needle and the colorful threads. It's amazing seeing these works and how detailed it could be.Lacquer wares and lacquered paintings: Together with China Japan Vietnam has had its lacquer wares history dating back from thousand years ago. But it is the very first country in the world to make painting from lacquer (which is in fact a sap coming from the Son plant). A true piece of lacquered painting can never be perfect

Vietnam is changing very fast. Visit this country before it turned into Japan or China. People are so friendly and everything is so inexpensive. I travled from Saigon to Hoian Hue Hanoi and Halong bay. What a wonderful place to visit.
