According to the Hoan Kiem district People’s Committee, operations will resume on the Hàng Đào - Hàng Giấy - Đồng Xuân night market route and the six extended walking streets belonging to the Level 1 conservation area in Hanoi's Old Quarter.
These areas will operate for three days on weekends. Functional forces will regularly inspect and strictly handle any and all COVID-19 prevention violations.
A report from Hanoi’s Tourism Department revealed the average daily spending by foreign visitors last year in Hanoi was $119.8, a year-on-year increase of 7 percent, but far below the amounts spent in Dubai ($537), Paris ($301) and Singapore ($286). In Phuket and Bangkok in Thailand they spent $239 and $173, and in Seoul it was $181.
