A very short glimpse at what you can expect when visiting train street in Hanoi! The train is so close to where you sit and they do not slow down!

[@jacksontrannguyen8424]

It is completely against rail roads and vehicle roads codes of Vietnam, but they still let it slide because over the time it has been a small culture attraction of the city.

[@iatrui]

All across Asia have trains running a few meters from residential houses. Mumbai has it, Manila has it etc, just that in Thailand and Vietnam they have managed to make it a tourist attraction by placing markets and restaurants 😊

[@EmmieandPaul]

Yes definitely, it’s an interesting sight to see!

[@ismaelvip415]

​@@EmmieandPaulhace un año el gobierno ordenó cerrar todos los cafés y restaurantes, pero veo que siguen en forma ilegal.

[@GaryVichy]

I recommend to picnic on the highway, it's very nice too 🎉

[@davehad-enough2369]

Nice and neat and clean. Trains like this run in the Philippines also - but they are no tourist attraction with people waiting with cameras - no, it's full on and watch out.

[@EmmieandPaul]

Are you living in the Phillipines Dave ? We are planning on coming there soon!

[@IvanVoid]

There were more trains in the Philippines, but the presidents - puppets of USA, destroyed most of the railways. Now mostly it's only memories drown in jungles

[@D10H_025]

Unfortunately, business activities on railroad safety corridors like this are illegal in Vietnam

[@jeaninestewart1136]

It's not about legality but acceptance. .look at all the people sitting there😅

[@EmmieandPaul]

It was crazy 😂

[@user-sz8yg4qu3f]

I just cant imagine how many pets died in that street.

[@HoangLe-ht5fo]

​@@user-sz8yg4qu3ffortunately our pets are not as dumb as us humans. They smart, anytime they feel something very large coming their way. Pet run away, not humans. So no pet casualty reported. 😂❤🎉😅

[@jezcon9467]

It's fantastic Leave it be👍

[@stellarv5689]

If that thing ever derails..

[@EmmieandPaul]

You’re not wrong 😆

[@humanshieldz]

If someone felt faint and suddenly just lean out a little 😱😱

[@EmmieandPaul]

I know ! I guess that’s why they make everyone sit down ? 😂

[@Stuff_And_Things]

WHY???

[@jamesmiller2332]

Better than a roller coaster.

[@ivandaradics5955]

Cool

[@EmmieandPaul]

Thank you for watching! 🙏🏼

Thank you! We will be back very soon 😁🙏🏼

[@AyeCarumba221]

We were there in October ‘23. Great fun! The train was something to see.

[@EmmieandPaul]

It is definitely something to experience isn’t it! 😆

[@koreanjesus1983]

If that train derails, they are all done.

[@Riogaming78]

can't because train obligatory slow at here

[@sergiusspb]

And how do all these people know about the train approaching? There's no too much time to dodge if you're on its way, it's moving fast.

[@EmmieandPaul]

Yeah, you can only access it from certain sections and they have people there most of the time. There’s only a few trains every day so it’s not like they’re barreling through every 10 minutes.

[@h8GW]

I know this won't make sense to most Americans, since it goes against our rights to freedom, but _apparently_ trains like to run on a predetermined schedule...

[@carioca2307]

Cualquier cosa sirve para atraer turistas inconscientes,pero si hay algun accidente despues no se quejen.😂

[@elbagrau]

This is still less dangerous than para gliding.

[@edwil111]

in USA would have 1 suicide per week. Sorry to say!

[@gregfruchtman1404]

Per week or per day?

[@momar6822]

For their law, it’s not illegal, yes it’s a legal. What you call legal, somewhere else it’s a illegal. But on the opposite, what you call illegal, of course somewhere else it’s a legal.

[@hoten12345]

việt nam tham nhũng số 1 nên chỉ cần ít tiền nó hợp pháp.

[@majorkade]

Because it's Vietnam

[@EmmieandPaul]

That my friend is very true 😂😂

[@jondoh3471]

In Vietnam, it's the law of the jungle to have trains behind your house.

[@vuhoangtrung1986]

Nice

[@cjacieracing]

I would not ever do this but not because I am not spontaneous, because all it take is that one person to do something stupid enough like the person who kinda stretch out her arm pointing at the train this could tag the person along bringing everyone else including objects with the train. All because that one small stupid thing that person did ‘pointing at the trains’. Because people have no common sense. Think about that before attempting this experience!

[@truesouth4784]

I honestly can't see what the fascination is all about.

[@EmmieandPaul]

Just something cool and fascinating about it, this would be closed down in a second in any western country.

[@SuperMario0972]

Oh it is, bit the train is really fast.... no chance if anything happens....

[@Lanon1169]

Its the thrill of being so close to something you associate with danger

[@truesouth4784]

Its not legal tho 😭

[@tommitchell8425]

Because its ANOTHER COUNTRY

[@jacksonyoung5931]

The entrance of the famous Rail street has been barricated by its Government enforcement officer stopping the tourist from entering without any reasons. Unless you have to comit to buy any drink or foods to the shops inside the Rail street. That is very ridiculous, an ugly scene of corruption and severely collateral damage to the image of tourism in Hanoi city 😡😡😡

[@EmmieandPaul]

If you go to the southern part of train street there are no problems. It’s only at the main tourist section where they will stop you. It was getting too dangerous with close calls from silly tourists who weren’t listening to the shop owners etc.

[@thumtlnguyen3626]

I know it doesn't make sense to the western law but you need to understand people living near the train track for the last 80 years at least before it turns into a tourist attraction.

[@djrichylaurence8991]

Everyone knows about Train Street. Whats the big deal?

[@gotfreid]

people would die by the hundreds here

[@EmmieandPaul]

You would think so ! They’re surprisingly on top of it and make sure everyone is seated etc. I have heard about people getting some nasty injuries trying to touch the train etc. 😳

[@Stuff_And_Things]

I think you mean Americans would die by the hundreds there. I want to see that but with an Olive Garden. How quickly do you think parents would get little Johnny under control? LOL

[@Xocolatben]
