In this neighborhood, filled with silk artisans with a tradition of more than a century, we have over 100 stores to buy silks, dresses, embroidery, etc…

Shoe Stores

In Hanoi, it is fairly easy to find shoe stores, above all footwear sports brands like Nike. The vast majority of the Hanoi center shoe stores are located in the Dinh Tien Hoang Street, on the East side of Hoan Kiem Lake and very close to the water puppet theatre.

All shoes are fakes sold there (except numbered models), the price is quite cheap and the quality is good, but if your Nike 6€ hurt you do not protest.

Women’s shoes shops are widely dispersed through the narrow streets of the old quarter of Hanoi. The best place to buy women shoes (dancers, high heel shoes, party shoes, etc…) is the Hanoi night market.

The western market or Tay Market was founded by an entrepreneur to promote French gourmet products. This market is where most expatriates living in Hanoi often turn to do the shopping.
