Làng Cầu Đơ: Từ tỉnh lỵ Hà Nội đến thủ phủ của tỉnh Cầu Đơ và tỉnh Hà Đông. (Vietnamese)

In 1831, Hanoi province was founded by the Nguyen Dynasty with its headquarters in the Thang Long citadel. In 1888, a part of Hanoi province was separated by the French government to establish Hanoi city. Therefore, Hanoi province was relocated to Cau Do village, Thanh Oai district, Ung Hoa prefecture. Accordingly, Hanoi province's name was changed to Cau Do province (1902), then Ha Dong province (1904). Since then, Cau Do had been built according to the model of a Hanoi miniature city by the French. In the meantime, Hanoi city was built in the style of a Western urban area. After 112 years (1896-2008) being a province, Cau Do area grew from a level III urban area to become a part of the special urban area. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
