Midweek was all about authentic local life as Julio led Rubén through O Quan Chuong — Hanoi's last surviving ancient gate — and into the buzzing world of Thanh Ha Wet Market. Vendors balanced baskets of fresh herbs and live seafood while sharing smiles and quick lessons in Vietnamese bargaining. The tour climaxed on century-old Long Bien Bridge, where Rubén soaked in panoramic Red River views and remarked that the morning felt like 'stepping into a living history book'.
