The project has received warm response from many other architects and authorised bodies as the bridge will become a historical tourism site, attracting both home and foreign visitors. However, there will be difficulties in implementing the project.
Long Bien Bridge has witnessed the ups and downs and historical moments of the capital city. Therefore, transforming the bridge into a museum is architects’ aspiration.
After a century to serve its transportation function, the bridge has been seriously degraded and needs preservation. The bridge deserves to become a living museum and a tourism-cultural highlight of Hanoi.-VNA/VNP
