A photo exhibition titled ‘Hanoi in me – 2017’ and themed ‘The Capital’s Rhythm of Life’, kicked off at the Temple of Literature in Hanoi on October 9, as part of activities to mark the 63rd anniversary of Hanoi’s Liberation day.


                                Visitors at the exhibition

Eighty photos at the exhibition were taken by nearly 40 photographers, who are members of Hanoi Elderly Photographers Club and the Economic and Urban Newspaper’s reporters and collaborators.

The exhibition is divided into four main parts, featuring the themes of landscape, culture, lifestyle and craft villages. It is seen as an opportunity for the public to delve into Hanoi’s heritage with the historical, cultural and architectural wealth of the thousand-year city, where tradition and integration meet. The display also depicts colorful aspects of Hanoians’ lifestyles and normal lives, from the suburbs to Hanoi’s centre.

"Hanoi in me” is an annual event organized by the Economic & Urban Newspaper in collaboration with Hanoi Elderly Photographers Club. After 11 previous events, "Hanoi in me” has become a meeting place for art and Hanoi lovers every October.

The exhibition will make an impression on the public with its sincere love for Hanoi. As such, photographers, whether they are artists or reporters, have captured the most beautiful moments of Hanoi.

The event runs until October 13.
