0:00Hanoi is looking to turn its afterdark

0:02activities into a broader nighttime

0:04economy, combining tourism, culture,

0:07entertainment, and creative experiences.

0:09A new plan issued by Hanoi People's

0:11Committee last month sets out a

0:13three-phase roadmap through 2045, with

0:16the sector targeted to contribute more

0:18than 12% of the capital's GRDP in the

0:21long term. Our reporter joins the city

0:23night tours to see how that vision is

0:26beginning to take shape.

0:31>> Hanoi is still busy long after the

0:34sunset, and tonight I'm joining one of

0:36the growing numbers of tours exploring

0:39the capital after dark. Starting here on

0:41the top deck of the double-deckers as it

0:44moves through the capital at night.

0:47>> From the upper deck, the tour takes in

0:49familiar landmarks before continuing on

0:51foot through the streets and alleys

0:54around the Temple of Literature.

0:57Here, the city's street names,

0:58traditional occupations, and everyday

1:00life become part of the experience.

1:05>> There are alleys I've walked through

1:06many times, but never realized they

1:09offer such interesting experience. For

1:11example, I can learn about the history

1:13behind the names or discover local sites

1:16like Thang Long Medical Temple.

1:21>> The tour is among dozens of nighttime

1:23products currently operating across

1:25Hanoi as businesses explore new ways to

1:28attract visitors after dark.

1:31>> We want to be among the first to offer

1:33an experience that gives people a fuller

1:35view of Hanoi from indoor and outdoor

1:38venues to artistic spaces and the

1:40everyday life of local people.

1:44>> Hanoi tourism is shifting from growth in

1:46visitor numbers towards greater depth

1:48and quality.

1:50This means creating more economic value

1:52from our cultural heritage and artistic

1:54assets, as well as a night time

1:56entertainment and cultural experience.

2:00>> This shift is now part of Hanoi's

2:02broader strategy for developing its

2:04night time economy, but existing

2:06activities remain relatively fragmented.

2:09While the city still needs more spaces

2:11and facilities to support a wider range

2:14of activities after dark.

2:17>> What Hanoi's night time economy needs in

2:20my opinion and experience

2:23uh are more open spaces.

2:26Uh open not just in terms of being

2:28exterior, but also open interiors that

2:31are accessible to a wide range of age

2:33groups and more communal activity.

2:36>> Hanoi's new plan aims to address that

2:38gap by developing key night time

2:40economic zones by 2035,

2:43from heritage and culture [music] in

2:44Hoan Kiem and Cua Nam to modern

2:47entertainment in Tay Ho and Me Dinh, and

2:49creative industries and cultural

2:51experiences in suburban areas and craft

2:54villages. By 2045, Hanoi aims to attract

2:57eight to 10 million international

2:59visitors a year [music] to night time

3:01activities, while establishing itself as

3:04a city of night time cultural

3:06experiences.
