- The Soviet influence in this city is always fascinating for me. I will be focusing on government and public buildings in a future video.
Here is a link to a great book on this subject, I highly recommend, it's very short and easy to read.

Great work on this video and photography
I really enjoy the photos you took
Thank you !;
the comment you made about "dramatic lines an artistic architecture" is unfortunately, not true at all. I don't know who tell you that but those "artistic" extensions you see are simply... extensions made from cheap materials that happen to look colorful. I have a relative who used to live in one of these apartments, they are ussually blue collar workers who could not afford a better place, hence the extension.
The book I referenced in the description is a history of Soviet architecture in Vietnam. After the french left there were very few architects left in Hanoi that weren't part of the war effort, the Soviets brought architects to Hanoi to fill in the gap, after 5-10 years they were able to train new Vietnamese architects who were more influenced by local design aesthetics and less restricted on preplanned soviet designs. The early Soviet block houses are basically flat walls with right angles, then once the Vietnamese architects were trained you see more dramatic designs.
