The iconic bridge of Hà Nội

More than a century ago, on September 12, 1898, construction began on the first steel bridge crossing the Red River in Hà Nội. Thousands of Vietnamese workers worked on this project, using various materials, such as lime stone, ironwood blocks, and cement. The project was completed in 1902, making it one of the four greatest bridges in the world at the time.

Since its early construction, the bridge has witnessed many changes in Hà Nội from the past to present. Throughout its history, the bridge has served as a significant transportation link. During wartime, it assisted local residents in transporting rice from the North to Northern Central areas of Việt Nam. Torn down by bombs, it was quickly renovated so that people could continue using it as a connection point to transport goods. The bridge was renamed Long Biên in 1954.

Today, the bridge is used for trains, motorcycles, bicycles and pedestrians only. Local and international tourists enjoy walking across on the bridge and taking photos of its breathtaking views, especially at sunrise or sunset. Local lifestyle can also be seen in fruit markets at the foot of the bridge.
