This street marks the outer boundary between the Central District and the Old Quarter.
Hàng Gai Street (Hemp Street) marks the outer boundary of the Central District with the Old Quarter. In the past, hemp used to be sold here to make hammocks or fishing nets. According to the writer Huu Ngoc, "Hemp Street was different from Silk Street (Hàng Dao Street): the latter was essentially a commercial street, while the former symbolized letters and courtesy". And today, the stores on Hàng Gai Street cater to a much wealthier - and more touristy - clientele than those on Hàng Dao Street

C'est une rue avec beaucoup de magasins de soie, en général de qualité assez médiocre. Il y a une atmosphère relativement intéressante, mais à part faire une promenade dans le quartier de 36 corporations tout proche, elle n'a pas grand intérêt.
