On the evening of February 5th in Hanoi, the Hoang Thanh Thang Long Citadel lit up with brilliance as it played host to an enchanting night of poetry, music, and verse, presenting the "Nguyen Tieu Poetry Night."

This is part of the Vietnam's Poetry Day 2023 celebration, an annual event organized by the Vietnam Writers' Association on the 15th day of the first lunar month.

For the first time, Vietnam's Poetry Day was held in the evening, breaking away from the tradition of morning gatherings.

The stage, set up in front of the Doan Mon Gate at the Hoang Thanh Thang Long Citadel, not only boasted intricate and exquisite decorations but also surprised the audience with an array of dazzling pyrotechnics and impressive sound effects./.
