Over 100 years ago, in September, the Governor-General of Indochina started construction of a bridge over the Red River. The bridge was named Paul Doumer, but Hanoians call it Long Bien Bridge or Cai River Bridge.
At that time, it was the second longest bridge in the world, only after the Brooklyn Bridge over the East River in the US and is considered the horizontal Eiffel Tower of Hanoi.
Due to the impacts of nature and destruction by wars for three centuries, the bridge has now kept intact a compound span in the north, another in the south and half of a compound span in the middle of the river.
