Exhibition recalls living space of Hanoians in early 20th century

Recently, the Hanoi Museum kicked off an exhibition to introduce visitors the living space and traditional customs of Hanoians in early 20th century.

The exhibition themed "Nep xua" introduces nearly 200 documents and artifacts with four main contents including: living room, ancestral altar, villa, traditional five-flap long dress.

The exhibition recalls the lives of urban affluent families with a variety of artifacts and documents collected at home and abroad for the public to understand the life of this period. 

At the same time, the exhibition aims at bringing good traditional cultural values to the next generation, creating a connection between traditional culture and current culture as well as nurturing love with Hanoi in each person.

Joining hands to preserve and follow suit will form new dynamic and cultural classes of Hanoians, contributing to building a more and more solidly developed capital.
