About Long Bien Wholesale Market

The hidden beating heart of Hanoi's food supply. From midnight to 4am, the area under Long Bien Bridge turns into a frenetic wholesale vegetable and fruit market. Mountains of produce, motorbikes stacked with bamboo shoots, and an energy that feels like the city's secret.
