If you want a unique experience while you're in Hanoi, Vietnam, head to the Hanoi Train street at around 3.30pm.

Twice a day, a passenger train speeds through this narrow residential laneway, scattering everyone in front of it. Before it arrives, locals living next to it need to put away their motorbikes, bicycles, children and chickens!

It's quite a popular spot with tourists and some of the locals have even opened up a cafe where you can sit with a beer in hand and watch the train fly by!
