Hem ( Vietnamese: Hẻm) or Ngo ( Vietnamese: Ngõ) are the terms used to describe narrow streets branching off of main roads. [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Hem are characterized by their narrow width and are lined with narrow, multistory buildings known as tube houses, creating a dense and vertical urban form. [6] [7] [8] [9]
In 2016, 85% of residents in Ho Chi Minh City and 88% in Hanoi lived in hem alleyways. [5] [10] Hem are numbered and referred to by the name of the major street it branches off of, similarly to Sois in Thailand. [11] [12] Slashes are used to indicated an address in a hem, so the address "36/23 Hẻm Lê Thị Riêng" indicates the house is number 36 in the 23rd Hem off Lê Thị Riêng street. [5] [13]
