The Old Quarter has a history of over 2,000 years. The area started out as a snake and alligator infested swamp. It was later turned into villages with houses on stilts and was protected by the Chinese. After attaining independence in the 11th century, the cluster acquired a reputation as a crafts area. At present, there are more than 70 streets that are separated into quarters, each specializing in different products.
