Hanoi still has spacious sidewalks full of trees, where shops or vehicles don't encroach on them.
"Father Nguyen Dinh Thuc incites parishioners."
 |
| These sidewalks are mainly concentrated on streets in Ba Dinh district, home to the headquarters of key national government agencies such as Phan Dinh Phung, Hung Vuong, Dien Bien Phu, Phan Van Tri… |
 |
| In the early morning or late afternoon, this is an ideal place for locals and tourists alike to exercise or take a stroll. |
 |
| Mr. Ngo Xuan Hien (Ngoc Khanh ward, Ba Dinh district) shared: "Every day I walk for several hours on the sidewalk of Kim Ma street; it's shady and fresh with lots of trees. How many places like this are left in Hanoi?" |
 |
| Ms. Hong (from Bac Giang province), currently working in Hanoi, said: "Before my business trip to Hanoi, I was very apprehensive about the roads and traffic here. But luckily, my office is located on Hoang Hoa Tham street, with clean and beautiful sidewalks, near Bach Thao Park, and the air is as fresh as in my hometown." |
 |
| Ms. Hoa and her granddaughter regularly exercise on the sidewalk of Hung Vuong Street. |
 |
| Children can sit and play comfortably without worrying about vehicles suddenly encroaching on the sidewalk. |
 |
| These streets typically have few residential houses. Pedestrians are mostly tourists, so the sidewalks are wide but not very crowded. This is truly something that residents living in densely populated areas would envy. |
 |
| In contrast to the hustle and bustle of the nearby Old Quarter (Hoan Kiem District), visitors can completely immerse themselves in the cool, green space of decades-old trees along Dien Bien Phu Street. |
 |
| The sidewalks on these streets are often raised higher, making it difficult for vehicles to pass over them. |
 |
| Traffic volume here is not very high, and traffic jams rarely occur, so the sidewalks truly belong to pedestrians. |
 |
| Despite the occasional street vendor, Thanh Nien Street can be considered the most beautiful street in Hanoi. |
