Exhibition of photos of Hanoi past and present
More than 100 black and white photos by
photo-journalists from the Vietnam News Agency (VNA) chronicling Hanoi from the
past until the present day are on display in Hanoi .
Speaking at the opening ceremony on August 23 for the “Hanoi-the heart of
motherland” exhibition, VNA’s Deputy General Director Nguyen Duc Loi said the
exhibition reflects the capital city’s glorious history during the country’s
struggles for national independence and construction as well as simple images
from days gone past.
He said that VNA’s staff, along with people the length and breadth of the
nation, are reverently welcoming the 1,000th anniversary of Thang Long-Hanoi,
which is in October this year.
Apart from the documentary photos of Hanoi in the past, there are also images of
late President Ho Chi Minh and other state leaders as well as of the capital
city in its struggle for freedom during the US and French wars and the
industrialisation and modernisation process.
The exhibition will last until August 29.
