SHOPPING

Hang Gai (Silk Street)

$Local

Hanoi’s classic silk-shopping stretch—browse, compare, negotiate.

A good place to shop if you’re willing to compare quality across stores. Go in the daytime when shops are fully open, and don’t buy the first thing you see. Treat it like a browsing street, not a single destination.
