Ha Noi continues to pilot walking streets
The Ha Noi municipal People’s Committee on December 13 decided to
continue maintaining walking streets surrounding Hoan Kiem Lake and its nearby
areas in 2017, and increasing measures to make them trimmer.
Nguyen Duc Chung, Chairman of the Ha Noi municipal People’s Committee, affirmed
that organizing walking streets at weekends has been welcomed by local residents
and tourists.
In upcoming time, the walking streets will be implemented scientifically and
orderly to turn it into an exciting cultural space.
The walking streets will be open to the public on national days such as April
30, May 1 and September 2.
Chung said Ha Noi will organize big events in the walking zone. The Cherry
(Sakura) Blossom festival will be an annual event of the walking zone from March
18-23.
Other cultural programs include ASEAN, Asian and European cuisine festivals and
art performances of the Central Highlands, the Northwestern region, the Central
region and the Red River Delta.
Exhibitions on village craft products; book, beer and street festivals and other
activities will be also organized in the walking zone.
Beginning in September, the walking zone surrounding Hoan Kiem Lake in downtown
Ha Noi has quickly become a hit, drawing dozens of thousands of local and
international tourists each weekend.
