Exhibition features old Hanoi’s space

An exhibition which displays traditional handicraft products from villages in and around Hanoi is being held in the city.

The event is spread over three spaces in the Old Quarter, Dong Lac Temple at 38 Hang Dao Street; Kim Ngan Temple at 42-44 Hang Bac Street and Heritage House at 87 Ma May Street.

The programme is hoped to focus attention on Hanoi’s tangible and intangible aspects of Vietnamese culture and to keep Hanoians in touch with the customs of the past.
