Hang Trong or Drum Street, Hanoi.

The Old Quarter, near Hoan Kiem Lake, consisted of only about 36 streets at the beginning of the 20th century. Each street then had merchants and households specialized in a particular trade, such as silk traders, jewellery, silversmiths, etc. Most street names in Hanoi's Old Quarter begin 'Hang', meaning 'shop' or 'merchant'. The names still stand to this day and the area is popular for trade and merchandise as well as nightlife.
