An exhibition on the history of the ancient capital of Thang Long and Ha Long Bay opened on April 29 in the coastal city of Ha Long , Quang Ninh province.
The 11-day exhibition showcases almost 100 photos chronicling the daily lives of fishermen on Ha Long Bay along with 200 objects including fishing tools, pottery, Dai La bricks and an clay tower dating back to the 10th century. The remains of marine animals are also on display at the event.
Over the past 1,000 years, the influence of Hanoi on Ha Long city to the northeast, as well as the influence of Ha Long on the nation’s capital, Thang Long/Hanoi, has created a rich and unique culture for both.
Numerous objects under the Dinh, Pre-Le, Ly and Tran dynasties have been discovered in Tuan Chau city, Quang Ninh province while the Ly dynasty from the Thang Long capital set up the Van Don trading port in Quang Ninh, which opened the way for economic and cultural exchange./.
