(COMBO) This combination of pictures created on May 26, 2026 shows (top) a man riding a cyclo carrying customers past a restaurant with outdoor seating in Hanoi on June 16, 2025, and the same location (bottom) with a man driving a motorbike past the restaurant without outdoor seating on May 26, 2026. The pavements of Hanoi's wide boulevards and narrow lanes have long been clogged with bustling food stalls, weaving scooters, and crowds of coffee and beer drinkers sitting on low plastic stools. But the spontaneity that charmed tourists and supported street vendors in Vietnam's capital has subsided in recent months as authorities clamp down on illegal use of footpaths (Photo by Nhac NGUYEN / AFP via Getty Images) / To go with 'VIETNAM-ECONOMY-FOOD-SOCIAL,FOCUS' by Tran Thi Minh Ha and Ty McCormick
