Recreating The Cultural Essence Of Old Hanoi In The Old Quarter

Inspired by the distinctive cultural values of Thang Long - Hanoi, In Bong Long Thanh brings familiar images of the ancient capital to the stage in a poetic way. Young women from To Nu paintings, the melodies of Ca Tru, the colors of Vietnamese lacquer painting, the Mother Goddess worship tradition, and imagery of the Old Quarter gradually come to life, evoking an old Hanoi that feels both familiar and nostalgic.

Rather than telling a linear historical story, the show takes audiences through fragments of memory, allowing Hanoi’s cultural heritage to be experienced through images, sounds, and emotions.
