These following images reflecting the peaceful beauty of Hanoi around 60 years ago feature houses with mossy roofs and the joy of Hanoians after Hanoi was freed from the enemy. They are also like a message to call people living and working far from home to come back and unite with their family members on the first days of a lunar new year in Hanoi, a city with thousand years of civilization.

PANO would like to introduce some photos reflecting New Year atmosphere in Hanoi in the first years since the liberation day.
