The murals on Phung Hung street highlight fine traditional and cultural values of thousand-year-old Hanoi, narrating tales of local vendors, women carrying flowers, tinkling trams with passengers, and more.
Under a community art exchange project funded by the Korea Foundation, UN-Habitat, and the Hoan Kiem District People’s Committee, Vietnamese and Korean artists and Nguyen The Son painters group drew mural paintings on the walls along the street and it was opened to the public in early 2018, it is now one of the most ‘gram-worthy places in the city as well as a hub for cultural exchange.
Undoubtedly, the artwork here at Phung Hung Street helps in preserving and promoting the heritages of Hanoi and enabling the locals and visitors to learn more about Hanoi’s culture.
