These activities aim to preserve and honor traditional cultural values of the Vietnamese people as well as to help visitors, especially youths, learn more about the traditional Tet of Hanoi and adjacent localities.

In addition, folk music performances will be on stage at different relics in the Hanoi Old Quarter, including Dong Lac and Kim Ngan Communal Houses, Hanoi Old Quarter Information Center and Phuc Kien Club.
