Festival season on the river

The ancient capital Hoa Lu is not only surrounded by ramparts of overlapping mountain ranges, but also the Ngo Dong, Hoang Long, Sao Khe rivers... as a witness to the nation's history, embracing a system of extremely rich tangible and intangible cultural heritage. The unique traditional folk festivals of the ancient capital are all held on the river, creating a large cultural space, crystallizing beautiful human values, rich in national cultural identity, partly showing the diversity and richness in the spiritual life of the people of Trang An.
