Authorities in Hanoi plan to open a new pedestrian zone around Son Tay old fortress citadel during the upcoming Reunification Day (April 30) holiday to boost tourism.

 

The 820-meter-long pedestrian zone spans some streets around the ancient citadel in the outlying district of Son Tay, 40 kilometers from downtown Hanoi, to form a space for entertainment, culture and tourism purposes, as well as promote the image of the Son Tay fortress, a military base built by King Minh Mang in 1822 to protect Thang Long Imperial Citadel.

 

The zone is scheduled to open from 7 p.m. Saturday until noon on Sunday with contemporary art performances, street music, folk dances, portrait painting, sketching, calligraphy, boat racing, fishing and water puppetry.
