(Translated by Google) The Húc Bridge (meaning "the place where the early morning sunlight" is located "or" the halo of aura ") consists of 15 spans, with 32 legs of round wooden columns arranged in 16 pairs, the deck is paved with red paint Dark, the word The Húc was covered with gold. In the past, The Húc Bridge was painted in red and made of very rudimentary wood. However, after the bridge breaking incident in 1952, the mayor of Hanoi at that time, Tham Hoang Tin, demolished the old bridge and rebuilt a new bridge based on the design of architect Nguyen Ngoc Diem. (Original) Cầu Thê Húc (có nghĩa là "nơi đậu ánh sáng Mặt Trời buổi sáng sớm" hay "Ngưng tụ hào quang") gồm 15 nhịp, có 32 chân cột gỗ tròn xếp thành 16 đôi, mặt cầu lát ván, thành sơn màu đỏ sẫm, chữ Thê Húc được thếp vàng. Xưa kia, cầu Thê Húc được sơn màu đỏ và làm bằng gỗ rất thô sơ. Tuy nhiên, sau sự cố gãy cầu năm 1952, thị trưởng Hà Nội lúc đó là Thẩm Hoàng Tín đã cho phá bỏ cây cầu cũ, xây dựng lại một cây cầu mới dựa trên bản thiết kế của kiến trúc sư Nguyễn Ngọc Diệm.

Beautiful at night. You’ll see it when you come to walking street on weekends.

Take care when buying a ticket, the lady tried to give back false change. She did that with 4 people in a row! Even if you tell here it’s wrong, she tries again!!

(Translated by Google) The bridge is located in the area of ​​Sword Lake, connecting from Tower But to Ngoc Son Temple has a very unique beauty. Between the green background of the trees and the lake surface is a bright red color, more prominent under the morning sun. Perhaps for that reason, the bridge is called The Húc, which is a Sino-Vietnamese word with The (栖) meaning "to rest" and Húc (旭) means "sunshine at sunrise", gathering medium can be understood as "the condensing place of the morning sunlight". For me, this bridge is one of the most characteristic features of romantic Hanoi. The Huc connects Thap But (Pen Tower) to Ngoc Son Temple that are all located within Sword Lake area. The bridge has an unique beauty: a scarlet red in the midst of a green picture covered by trees and surface of the lake. It becomes more impressive under the early morning sunlight. May be that's reason why the bridge was named so: The (栖) means to "stay" Huc (旭) means "dawn" or "rising sun" For me, this bridge is one of the most typical features of poetic Ha noi. (Original) Cây cầu nằm ở khu vực hồ Gươm, nối từ Tháp Bút sang đền Ngọc Sơn có một nét đẹp rất riêng biệt. Giữa nền xanh của cây cối và mặt hồ là một màu đỏ rực, càng nổi bật hơn dưới ánh nắng ban mai. Có lẽ vì lý do đó mà cầu mang tên là Thê Húc, vốn là một từ Hán Việt với Thê (栖) có nghĩa là "đậu lại" và Húc (旭) có nghĩa là "ánh nắng lúc mặt trời mọc", tụ trung lại có thể hiểu là "nơi ngưng tụ của ánh nắng ban mai". Với mình thì cây cầu này là một trong những nét đặc trưng nhất của Hà Nội thơ mộng. The Huc connects Thap But (Pen Tower) to Ngoc Son Temple that are all located within Sword Lake area. The bridge has an unique beauty: a scarlet red in the midst of a green picture covered by trees and surface of the lake. It becomes more impressive under the early morning sunlight.

This fancy Red Bridge Connects the City to the temple at the Lake. There is an entry fee here. It's a popular spot so it'll be crowded with locals and tourists for photography and for praying at the temple

The bridge connects to Ngoc Son temple which is located in the middle of the lake. Its color was unique red that you can see easily from different parts of the lake. From the bridge you can take pictures of the lake scene.

Beautiful bridge to walk through and visit the temple on the lake's little island.

Beautiful views of the lake in the evening. Take your camera and watch the sunset and the lighting of the bridge and surrounding area Well worth it. Nearby there's plenty of store, street vendors, café's and restaurants Hustle and bustle and great vibe of life in the whole area

A lovely wooden bridge that connects to a temple on the island, this bridge adds to the beauty of the island especially at night when its comes alive with light.

Nice view of the lake from this bridge.

Cool bridge, it was the first place I visited in Vietnam back in 2015. Good times

Wonderful at night.

you have to pay entry fee unfortunately. Then you can walk across the bridge and visit another pagoda in the middle of the sea. Good tourist spot.

Beautiful bridge both during the day and night.

Historic place to visit

Peaceful place for contemplation and relaxation away from the hassle and bustle of Honoi.

Beautiful place, especially in the morning, quiet with locals around area doing tai chi

I’d say that the best part is discovering the preserved specimen of the Sword Lake Turtle in the temple grounds. Pretty amazing.

Nice lake area in old quarter

We went to this location and found it to be very beautiful, well maintained, and it was easy access.

So great!

Maybe the most interesting spot of the city for taking some nice photos.

Iconic red bridge to the Ngoc Son Temple.

The woman at the till gave us a 5000 back instead of a 50,000 be careful with your money! It also happened to my friend who was in the queue behind me because she knew we were foreigners and she was trying to scam us!

The woman at the ticket booth gave the wrong change back, she gave me and my friend 5,000 each instead of the 50,000 we should have both got- we walked away before realising and came straight back before we’d even started explaining she looked sheepish and handed over a 50,000 note in exchange for our 5,000 with apologetic gestures. Be VERY careful that they are giving the correct change

(Translated by Google) Renovated many times. Up to now, the bridge still retains its beauty as before. (Original) Được nhiều lần trùng tu. Đến nay cầu vẫn giữ được nét đẹp như ngày nào.

Một địa điểm mang tính văn hoá du lịch cần phải đến khi đến Hà Nội

OK

(Translated by Google) It is a place that cannot be stopped. If you come at night during the festival, it will be very beautiful. Enjoy watching the fire at the edge of the water, not hot, cool and comfortable, the atmosphere is similar to Northern Thailand. (Original) เป็นสถานที่ที่ไม่แวะก็ไม่ได้ ถ้ามากลางคืนช่วงเทศกาลละก็จะสวยมากๆ นั่งดูไฟกันเพลิน ๆ ริมน้ำ กากาศไม่ร้อน เย็นสบาย บรรยากาศคล้าย ๆ ภาคเหนือที่ประเทศไทย

(Translated by Google) In 2016, I still took pictures on the usual The Huc bridge, only to point out that I need to buy tickets. Now, I do not sell tickets from the top of the gate - that is, if you want to go to The Huc Bridge, you have to buy tickets .. take full advantage of it, see the commercialization is too fun .. can mobilize funds to maintain the schedule. cultural history in many different forms .. (Original) Năm 2016 mình vẫn chụp trên cầu Thê Húc bình thường, chỉ vào đề mới cần mua vé. Bây chừ bán vé từ đầu cổng - tức là muốn lên cầu Thê Húc bắt buộc phải mua vé.. tận thu ghê luôn, thấy thương mại hoá quá nên hết vui.. có thể huy động quỹ để bảo trì bảo tồn địa điểm lịch sử văn hoá bằng nhiều hình thức khác nhau mà..

(Translated by Google) One of the important historical sites, the destination of all visitors to Hanoi. On a sunny day, there were no customers because of the epidemic, so I could take pictures. (Original) Một trong nhưng địa điểm lịch sử quan trọng, điểm đến của tất cả câc du khách tới Hà nội. Được ngày nắng đẹp, không có khách vì đang dịch bệnh mới đi chụp được.
