Luggage storage Hang Vai

Hang Vai was the cloth street in the old guild system, and today it is better known for the bamboo and wooden goods stacked along its pavements. It sits in the north of the Old Quarter, a block from Hang Ma, the paper street, where lanterns and red decorations fill the shopfronts in the weeks before Mid-Autumn and Tet, and about two hundred metres from Dong Xuan Market. People come to this end of town to buy, not just to look, and buying is hard when one hand is always on a suitcase handle. Leave the bag here, take your time with the lanterns and the market stalls, and keep both hands free for whatever you are carrying home. It works just as well on a travel day: store in the morning after checkout, see the northern streets at your own pace, and pick everything up before an evening bus or flight.
