Hang Dau Water Tower, one of the oldest structures in the Hanoi capital, has sesame buds that turn red in the changing season, making the scene become poetic and romantic like the European city view, attracting a lot of people who come to visit and take pictures.
Hang Dau water tower is actually a water supply work for Hanoi people dating back to the French colonial period. The work was built in 1894, before Long Bien Bridge, located at the junction of the old streets of Hang Than, Hang Luoc, Hang Giay, Hang Dau, Quan Thanh, and Phan Dinh Phung. Because the tower has a blockhouse-like architecture, many people mistakenly think to call it, and the name “Hang Dau booth" has also become familiar since then.
In the midst of the bustling bustling capital, Hang Dau Water Tower, one of the symbols of the capital, in the past has witnessed many ups and downs of history and times, but today still quietly adorns the landscape of winter. Spring in Hanoi with the red color of sesame buds in the changing season attracts people to come and visit and discover the hidden beauty in the heart of the thousand-year-old capital.
