The Long Biên Bridge in Hanoi, Vietnam, is a historic cantilever bridge that spans the Red River and connects two districts. Built in 1899-1902 by French architects, it was originally named Paul Doumer Bridge. During the Vietnam War, it was heavily bombed due to its strategic importance. Today, parts of the original structure remain intact, while repairs have been made to keep it functional. The bridge is now used by trains, mopeds, bicycles, and pedestrians, with traffic diverted to other nearby bridges. It's a unique landmark with a mix of history and modern-day utility, attracting visitors and locals alike.
