Farming, building activities, traditional games, and the lifestyle of Northern villagers are recreated through ancestral bamboo props, breath-taking cirque and acrobatics performances, and rhythmic dance, to distinct folk music from more than 20 musical instruments.

Ticket prices: VND 700,000- VND 1,050,000

Hanoi-Installation Exhibition “Deo cay giua duong” by Yen Nang

VICAS Art Studio, 32 Hao Nam Street, Dong Da District,
