Đồng Xuân Market, known in Vietnamese as Chợ Đồng Xuân, traces its origins to the early nineteenth century when, in 1804 under the Nguyễn Dynasty, a market was established on the southern bank of the Tô Lịch River to support riverine trade.
By the late 1800s the Old Quarter contained two principal open-air markets on Hàng Đường and Hàng Mã streets. In 1889 the French colonial administration closed those sites, filled in sections of the river and nearby lake, and consolidated commerce into a single covered marketplace in what became Đồng Xuân Ward.
Construction of the original structure began around 1889–1890; the French called it Les Halles Centrales or Grand Marché, though locals retained the name Đồng Xuân, meaning “Spring Field.” The building covered roughly 6,500 square meters and featured five interconnected halls with distinctive arched entrances and dome-like roofs of corrugated iron on a steel frame, each dome rising about 19 meters high. It quickly became ...
Trấn Quốc Pagoda in Hanoi traces its origins to the mid-sixth century, when construction began in 541 under the reign of King Lý Nam Đế and the temple was completed around 545. At that time it was known as Khai Quốc Pagoda, or the Pagoda of the Nation’s Foundation, and stood on the banks of the Red River as one of the earliest major Buddhist centers in the region that would later become the capital of Thăng Long.
Over the following centuries the site underwent repeated renovations and expansions that reflected the changing fortunes of Vietnamese Buddhism and successive dynasties.
In the early nineteenth century, under the Nguyễn Dynasty, substantial restoration work was carried out and a series of stone steles dating from 1813 to 1815 were erected to record the temple’s history and the efforts to rebuild it after periods of decline.
The most recent major addition came in 1998 with the construction of the eleven story Bảo Tháp, a fifteen meter high stupa adorned with lotus motifs and ...
The Imperial Citadel of Thang Long, known in Vietnamese as Hoàng Thành Thăng Long, stands in the heart of Hanoi as one of the most enduring symbols of Vietnamese statehood. Its origins reach back to the seventh century, when Tang Chinese authorities constructed the Đại La Citadel on drained land in the Red River Delta. In 1010 Emperor Lý Thái Tổ moved the capital from Hoa Lư to this site, renaming it Thăng Long, or Rising Dragon, after a legendary vision of a golden dragon ascending into the sky.
Construction of the imperial complex began that year and was largely finished by early 1011. For nearly thirteen centuries the citadel remained the continuous political centre of Đại Việt under successive dynasties.
The Lý period established the classic three-ring layout of outer defensive walls, imperial city, and innermost forbidden city. The Trần dynasty expanded and renovated the palace compounds. After the Ming occupation ended, Lê Lợi restored the capital as Đông Kinh and the ...
