Famous train street in Hanoi

Legendary train street, located close to Old Quarter and Bay mau Lake, is one of the must visit place in Hanoi. Experience is beautiful and definitely unique. We came around 6pm-7:30 pm and we saw 4 trains. Also met a great and nice cafe owner that helped us with the photos, so we ended up drinking beer in that cafe. Also we got a bottle cap, crushed by train, as a memory from this remarkable place. Definitely every recommendation :) #hanoi #hanoitravel #trainstreet

Hanoi’s Train Street, Vietnam 🇻🇳

The Hanoi Train Street is one of the most famous tourist spots in Hanoi. It’s a narrow street hidden in one of the back streets of Hanoi and surrounded by narrow houses packed closely together. These families’ backyards are the railways where the train passes twice per day. What makes it interesting is that the train tracks are only about 1 meter away from the surrounding houses, which looks quite dangerous. And when a train passes by people will go into the house to be safe. When you come here, try sitting and drinking coffee by the railway, the drinks are not too special but the scenery is unique and not too far from the center of Hanoi. You can walk there from Hoan Kiem Lake. I ordered a cup of egg coffee but it was sweet, it tasted good but i’d prefer if it’s a little bit less sugar 😅 #hanoi #vietnam #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #awesomepic #celebratewithtrip

Cafes beside Railway Track

Hundred years old train tracks running through the heart of Hanoi's old town have become an interesting attraction for travellers to Hanoi, especially foreigners. It is located a short walk from Hoan Kiem Lake at Tran Pu Street and Phung Hung Street. The special thing that attracts the tourists is the residential area along the two sides of Hanoi Train Track, right next to the railway on the doorstep, which many of them had converted into restaurants and cafes. The street is so narrow, so they must ensure that their vehicles and things are safe whenever the train passes by. The owners of the restaurants will know the timing of the train pass, if you want to know, can check with them. There is a so called policeman, which will prevent you from going into the tracks by yourself, but you are allowed, when you are brought in by the owner to the restaurant for a drink, so before the train comes, you got the freedom to take as many photos as you like.

nice place..

Wonderful Hanoi Train Street

Getting There - Train street is situated between Le Duan and Kham Tien street in Hanoi’s Old Quarter. It takes around 30 minutes to walk from Hoan Kiem lake. I recommend putting Ngo 224 Le Duan, the name of the street, into google maps and letting that guide you. Attractions - The train travels down Ngo 224 Le Duan each day at 3.30 pm and 7.30 pm as it makes its way from Hue to Long Bien railway station. I recommend getting there early but make sure that you are in a safe spot for when the train passes. The train isn’t likely to stop if you are caught in the middle of the track when it passes. Getting a cool photo isn’t worth the chance of death. #hanoi #hanoivietnam #train #vietnam

Iconic Hanoi train street

Hanoi train street is one of my must do things in Hanoi. I was fairly excited to see the train coming up close. However, when we reached there, the place was closed for tourists. There are cafe owners asking us to go cafe and view the train from inside. After checking the Web, realised that the stretch which was the closest to train rail was closed for safety reason. Seems like there were cases where the train went into emergency stop to avoid hitting tourists. You can still view it from other stretch of the rails. I came back at 3.15pm to catch the train timing, stated at 3.30pm. Met a friendly cafe owner who invited us to take pictures and video of the train from her cafe. Cautioned us not to go too near. The train was actually moving in a slow speed, not like the one we saw in video. Still fairly cool. Rating: Should come and chill here and watch train passed by. #celebratewithtrip

Hanoi Train rail track cafe

famous Hanoi train track rail , end sep 2022 closed to tourists. take some shots of the straight rail on the residential side can walk in but not the cafe side. there be someone from the cafe to bring you to the cafe. we sat at the top level supposing can see the train top passing by but we never wait til the train arrival. we do it next time in Hanoi. see you soon 😊

Café by the train rails!! 🚉

This is one of the most iconic things to do when visiting Hanoi, before used to be a very crowded place to visit but since they close it for tourist it has become quite empty. The only way to get in is to visit one of the coffee shops besides the rain and wait for the train to come. Is a great way to spend an afternoon and wait for the train, that day it was delayed so it passed at 5:45pm but it's good to check out the time table and be patient since it's hard to predict the exact moment that it will pass by. In KY case it was already a bit dark so it was very hard to take a good picture of the train moving, specially since it's so close, I can see why they close the area since it's actually not very safe to have a lot of people there during that time. #spooktaculartrip #tripblazers #fallingforfall

Train tracks to coffee ☕️

I too was fooled by the beautiful pictures and mystery of the train tracks. What you do not see from this photo is the amount of security guards and barriers stopping you from entering the tracks and walking down this beautiful path. Although the signs said it was dangerous, and that no photo taking was allowed, there were people inviting you onto the tracks if you wanted to buy some coffee from a café in the middle of the tracks. I did not unfortunately take this opportunity, however, if you wanted some photos in the middle of the tracks, it looks like this is the only way you are going to get some. I am unsure if the train still operates, however, the security guards were very strict about the proximity you could get to the barriers, these photos for what you could see at either side without going through the barriers. #celebratewithtrip #foodie #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #cafe #vietnam #travelinspiration
