Temple of Literature - National University: Grand Procession of Traditional Literature

In the solemn setting of the Van Mieu - Quoc Tu Giam National Special Monument, Nhan My School organized a procession of literary works and offered incense to the revered sages and virtuous ancestors. This activity was held to celebrate Vietnamese Teachers' Day (November 20) and Vietnamese Cultural Heritage Day (November 23).

In the early morning sunlight, still tinged with mist, the procession moved from Van Lake into the inner temple. The vibrant colors of the flags harmonized with the ceremonial music, bringing the ancient space back to life after centuries. In the courtyard of Dai Thanh Hall, the neatly pressed ceremonial robes and the fragrant incense wafted gently in the breeze, creating a sacred and solemn scene. This showcased the enduring vitality of tradition and the profound beauty of this "sacred temple of learning" in the heart of Hanoi .

The ceremony not only recreated traditional rituals but also expressed gratitude to the talented individuals, conveying a message to the younger generation to continue preserving and nurturing the tradition of learning, character development, and intellectual growth.
