Results for "Tràng An"

Quick answer

What is a Tràng An person, and why is it called Tràng An?

Tràng An was originally the capital of China during the Han dynasty, and later became a general term for a country's capital. In the Vietnamese context, a Tràng An person is an old way of referring to someone who lived in the capital, specifically a person of Thăng Long, Hà Nội. This way of speaking was not tied to a particular clan or street in the old quarter, but to the way of life of the people of the capital.
