Bring back a whole "treasure" of culture...
For nearly 2 months, people from all over the provinces have continuously flocked to the East of Hanoi to participate in the Oriental Light Festival in Ocean City. During the 58 days of the event, visitors have been immersed in an unprecedented series of experiences. That is the shimmering, magical space of dozens of lantern clusters - which are masterpieces of cultural heritage of Vietnam and many countries around the world. Besides, there are hundreds of events and connecting activities that open up a treasure trove of knowledge for young people.
Specifically, at the Ocean International Lantern Festival, many young people were overwhelmed by the path of light brought by artisans from many countries. With the works of Vietnamese artisans, the typical East Asian culture is lit up by lantern clusters inspired by ancient legends such as Hong Ha - Immortal Love Story, Lac Long Quan Returns, Thanh Giong ... taking viewers on a journey back to the past, to better understand the origin, history, and culture of the nation.

Not stopping there, at the festival space, young people can also check-in with giant lantern models, recreating famous Asian myths. The "Divine Beast Army" coming from ancient stories such as Son Hai Kinh or Linh Nam Chich Quai , not only shows the creativity and talented hands of the artisans, but also shows the strong vitality of traditional culture in modern society.
In particular, each activity in the 58-day event series of the festival makes visitors the subject of the experience. For example, in addition to admiring the lantern masterpieces, young people can rent traditional costumes, Vietnamese ao dai or traditional costumes of other countries, create "time-traveling" photo sets, unique transformation clips and receive thousands of likes on social networks, thereby contributing to promoting the spread and development of traditional culture.
