Thenkabail Received: 21 February 2016; Accepted: 12 April 2016; Published: 19 April 2016 Abstract: In this study, subsidence patterns in the Historical Centre of Hanoi, Vietnam are mapped using the Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) technique, with particular emphasis on the stability of ancient monuments, historical buildings and archaeological sectors. Due to the small and scattered characteristics of these structures, not only is a comprehensive coverage of radar targets needed, but also the details of a single building or monument. We took advantage of the high-resolution TerraSAR-X imagery with the aid of oversampling implementation on the Small Baseline (SB) InSAR approach to reveal the subsidence patterns. A total of 6.29 million radar targets were obtained, maintaining the average density of 217,012 points/km2. Our results suggest that image oversampling not only increased the number of measurement points 4.4 times more than the standard processing chain, but also removed some of the noisiest points.

  • Explore, Eat, Drink, Shop by Deb Obendorf Hanoi Is Vietnam's Capital and Second Largest City by Population
    HANOI Explore, Eat, Drink, Shop by Deb Obendorf Hanoi is Vietnam's capital and second largest city by population (7.7 million in 2015). The city mostly lies on the right bank of the Red River. Hanoi is 1,720 km (1,070 mi) north of Ho Chi Minh City and 105 km (65 mi) west of Haiphong. From 1010 until 1802, it was the most important political centre of Vietnam. It was eclipsed by Huế, the imperial capital of Vietnam during the Nguyễn Dynasty (1802– 1945). In 1873 Hanoi was conquered by the French. From 1883 to 1945, the city was the administrative center of the colony of French Indochina. The French built a modern administrative city south of Old Hanoi, creating broad, perpendicular tree-lined avenues of opera, churches, public buildings, and luxury villas, but they also destroyed large parts of the city, shedding or reducing the size of lakes and canals, while also clearing out various imperial palaces and citadels. From 1940 to 1945 Hanoi, as well as most of French Indochina and Southeast Asia, was occupied by the Japanese empire. On September 2, 1945, Ho Chi Minh proclaimed the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam). The Vietnamese National Assembly under Ho Chi Minh decided on January 6, 1946, to make Hanoi the capital of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. From 1954 to 1976, it was the capital of North Vietnam, and it became the capital of a reunified Vietnam in 1976, after the North's victory in the Vietnam War. WHERE TO STAY Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi was first opened at the turn of the 20th century by two private French investors.

  • “Banh Khuc”, So Delicious! “Cốm”
    “Banh khuc”, so delicious! Banh khuc is a traditional cake of Vietnam and so delicious! The cake is a rice ball made of glutinous rice mixed with cudweed (khuc)-most important ingredient and filled with green bean paste, pork, and spices. Cudweed grows during lunar January and February, when the drizzling rain lasts all day, and it can be found along the edges of rice fields. There are two kinds: “nep” and “te”. The latter is more flexible and fragrant and is preferred for making the cake. First, the cudweed is washed, ground and then mixed with husked glutinous rice. Green beans, that are flayed and turned into paste after being cooked, are then added to the mixture. Finally, the cakes are sprinkled with grains of glutinous steamed rice. As time goes by it is increasingly difficult to find cudweed as fields are eaten up by development. For now, you still can find “banh khuc” in Hanoi. However, some bakers may not be using cudweed and may substitute it with cabbage or water morning glory. Wishing to have the chance to satisfy your hunger for “banh khuc”, you can visit cake stall at 69 Nguyen Cong Tru Street, that has been churning out “banh khuc” for years. Ms. Nguyen Thi Lan, the seller, has to hire locals in rural areas in Hanoi or in neighbouring provinces to seek out the elusive cudweed. In winter, it grows in abundance so enough has to be collected to last the summer. The surplus will be dried and stored. If you are in the old quarter of Hanoi, you might hear someone cry “Ai banh khuc nong day?” (who wants hot “banh khuc”?).

    LETTER FROM APRICOT ĐC SAN S 02 2 3 $DZƫ,.%+0 Bức tranh thủy mặc ó lần, tôi đã ngồi trong im lặng hàng giờ đồng hồ để hồi tưởng những lần tôi đi xa Hà Nội thì những gì làm cho tôi nhớ về thành phố này. Và không chỉ thế, tôi cũng nhớ lại những người Hà Nội mà tôi gặp trong mấy chục năm nay với những gì họ đã chia sẻ với tôi về thành phố khi họ đi xa. Đấy là cảm xúc của những người Việt về Hà Nội của mình. Điều tôi muốn nói nữa là những người nước ngoài. Sau những Cchuyến đi từ Hà Nội trở về, họ cũng mang trong mình những gì như những người Việt Nam chúng tôi đã mang. Chính thế, cho đến lúc này, tôi có thể tự tin mà nói rằng: Những cái gì mong manh, mơ hồ, huyền ảo và trầm mặc đã làm nên vẻ đẹp Hà Nội. Và hồn vía của Hà Nội là những cái đó cộng vào. Nếu bây giờ chúng ta xóa đi sương khói huyền ảo của Hồ Tây trong những buổi chiều, xóa đi sự mơ hồ và cô tịch của những mái ngói, những ngôi nhà, ngôi chùa cổ, xóa đi những tiếng chuông chiều mà ta không rõ vang lên từ con phố nào, xóa đi những lối ngõ sâu thâm u cùng tiếng rao đêm mộng mị, xóa đi những người bán hàng rong trôi chầm chậm như một đám mây nhỏ cuối trời, xóa đi mùi cà phê từ những người mặc áo ấm kín cổ ngồi hơi co người trên những chiếc ghế thấp vỉa hè, xóa đi những đầm sen như chỉ mọc lên trong mộng, xóa đi dáng cầu Long Biên lướt nhẹ trên mặt sông Hồng - chiếc cầu mà cho đến bây giờ tôi vẫn nghĩ do một họa sỹ vẽ lên trên nền trời chứ không phải do một kỹ sư dựng bằng sắt thép..
