The streets of Hanoi’s Old Quarter are checked by security officers and do not allow vehicles to enter, especially Hang Gai Street.

Greek President Katerina Sakellaropoulou got out of the car and appeared in a very simple outfit: a dress, tafta pants, and white sneakers.

She took a walk around Hang Gai Street, then entered a store specializing in selling Tan My Design traditional products to experience and shop for products made in Vietnam. Here, she personally chooses, asks for prices and buys embroidered bags, lacquer trays…

Tomorrow morning, the President of Greece will leave Hanoi, continue his visit and work in Ho Chi Minh City for two days on 18 and 19 May 2022.
