Long Bien Bridge, Red River & the Layers of Hanoi's History
Long Bien Bridge (Cầu Long Biên — the historic cantilevered railway and road bridge across the Red River (Sông Hồng) in Hanoi, connecting the Hoan Kiem district to the Long Bien district — the most historically significant bridge in Vietnam): built 1899-1902 by the French colonial administration (designed by the Daydé & Pillé company and frequently (but incorrectly) attributed to Gustave Eiffel), the Long Bien Bridge was the longest bridge in Indochina at the time of its completion and the most important infrastructure project of the French colonial period in Vietnam.
