Hao Si Ward, when?

Please say right away, Hao Si Ward – this ward is not an administrative unit, but rather vaguely it is an area, an alley, an organization, a guild, in the past it was a gathering place for many literature and exams. monks, chivalrous people, exile, renouncing the homeland, immigrating to Vietnam. Here, they and the local documents exchange, trade, live with friends, have wards together.
The alley’s culture is very unique, passionate, has a depth of spirit. The alley has only 70 apartments with two floors. The front of the house is lovely, spacious, painted with real estate yellow in the past but still favorable today. The house next to the house is very tidy, hiding all herds, personal privacy inside.

9 am but the whole alley still… slept. The cafe at the top of the alley opened early. I went in to find a “built-in” glass – a small, hot, sugar-free black cup inherent in tea bars, cafes on the corner of the street owned by the Chinese … No, only black! Because, now is “trendy”. Yes, good coffee. The wall at the top of the alley is dark green, clean. Along the alley, clean, quiet, the house hangs clothes on the pole in front of the balcony. Looking down at the quiet, peaceful alley … At the end of the alley is a noodle shop. The best, probably because it’s the only restaurant in the alley. Cruel’s, delicious! Sitting in the restaurant, softly slapping the sound of noodles next to it. Suddenly, the singing of a bird in the cage, right in front of him. A baron, who, according to his master, was ordered from China, entered from Hanoi, was 3 years old. The alley bold features Hao Si Ward Enjoying the bowl of noodles, I look at a mini salon next door: Slimming, stretching, squeezing acne … bla bla … In the middle of the alley, an old lady sitting in the sun on the front porch … feeling relaxed. – Granddad, do you go out to cool down at night …? – No, at night the motorbike comes out loud, scared! At the beginning of the alley, there was a homemade car of a bottle buyer, a small tricycle occupying all the width of the alley… The staircase upstairs was impressive with the locks and key chains dangling. Unlike the love locks on the bridge of the Mong Bridge that evoke a little poetic, these locks firmly affirm a contemporary material asset. In the end, the iron chain lock is not noisy, still has the characteristics of Hao Si Phuong. At the People’s Committee of Ward 11, District 5, Ho Chi Minh City, I asked about this alley. The ward cultural officer was quite surprised: “The alley is peaceful and normal. The ward has no intention of investing in this alley, cultural specific activities and especially tourism are still… not! ”. A little regret, an alley with a clean and beautiful appearance, cute population, narrowly located in the heart of Cholon town, but still sleeping, let the “check-in tours” spontaneously for a long time. stir. No regrets “when, until the olden days?” but should you wonder: “Hao Si Phuong, ever a happy laugh?”
