Hanoi is called the city of rivers as it exists on the sides of rivers, including Red River, the source of life and a reflection of the capital city s history.
Long Bien Bridge was built in 1902. Only after 84 years did Hanoi have more bridges – Thang Long and Chuong Duong. The 1998 city plan called for nearly 10 more bridges.
