Introduction

The old city area located on the mountainside on the right bank of the Long River is known as the upper city by local residents because of its higher altitude. It is a place where many historical and cultural attractions such as churches and monuments are gathered, and there are also many small antique shops hidden in the winding alleys that are worth exploring. In the old city area, you can also find the former residence of the European enlightenment thinker Rousseau, which allows people to gain a deeper understanding of the history and culture of this city.
