On the occasion of Tet, Canon Vietnam organized an event to experience the new generation of cameras and lenses for photographers by recreating the space of Tet in the North in the past.

The chosen location is an ancient house nearly 100 years old located in Dong Ngac village (Dong Ngac ward, Bac Tu Liem district, Hanoi).

Dong Ngac Village is one of the oldest villages in the capital. The complex of architectural works dating back up to 400 years still exists today.

Dozens of photographers had the opportunity to attend this event.

The old men, women and children in traditional costumes always have friendly smiles, supporting the photographers to take photos recreating the atmosphere of the old Northern Tet.

The ancient houses with typical Northern features are decorated with red parallel sentences, peach branches, kumquat pots... filled with Tet atmosphere.

The image of old people sitting with their grandchildren wrapping banh chung in the time-stained space of a hundred-year-old house makes many people feel nostalgic.

The ancient space is even more prominent with the green of dong leaves, banh chung with the yellow of grapefruit or the red of ripe gac fruit.

These images make people living far away from home feel nostalgic and recall the Tet atmosphere of the past.

The image of wrapping and cooking banh chung or the whole family gathering together is very familiar to Vietnamese people every time Tet comes.

Located about 15km from the city center, Dong Ngac ancient village is a notable destination for tourists from all over the world who want to discover more beauty of Hanoi.
