Long Bien Bridge

Long Bien iron bridge in Hanoi Hong River The 1,6827-long 'Tong Bien' iron bridge across the north and south of the Hong River, the Han River in Vietnam, was Gustave Eiffel, the designer of the Phil Tower during the French colonial period. It was designed by the French rule in 1899 and completed in 1002. During the Vietnam War, it was destroyed and restored by more than 10 variables due to numerous air raids as a connecting port of Haiphong and Hanoi. It is said that entry and exit are prohibited and only trains, motorcycles and people can use it. Newly built modern bridges along the Hong River divide the weight of the suit, but the weight of 118 years is Long Bien It is a Vietnamese history museum that lives only with iron bridges. Currently, there is a cafe where you can enjoy the view of Long Bien iron bridge in Long Bien Station, and I recommend a lot of view restaurants. 👍

Although it was rainy this day, I walked up to the Longbian Bridge without any thought, walked from the old town to the opposite side, and then walked back. It took more than an hour to go back and forth. I also encountered a train passing by on the way. The rust of the bridge frame was obvious. The whole bridge looked very old. But it is still an important passage for citizens to cross the river. A large number of motorcycles shuttle through it. From time to time, young people will be seen taking artistic photos on the bridge, leaving a shadow of youth. This is the highest point in this part now, and it is quite easy to reach. We would walk up the train station and then down a path in the middle to the bridge. We could stand on the bridge and watch the crowds under the bridge. This place is worth visiting and by the way, take a look at this special iconic old bridge. Of course, it would be better if you would take a good look at this particular historic bridge, after all, it and the Eiffel Tower were designed by the same designer.

The Longbian Bridge is also a very old bridge in Hanoi. The scenery of this place is very special, and it is also a good place to appreciate the style of Vietnamese city. The vehicles on the bridge are very old styles and there are many bicycles.
