HÀ NỘI — Smiling photos are on display at an exhibition that opened today in Hà Nội.
Hà Nội Smiles is the result of a photo contest launched in January by Người Hà Nội newspaper and the Hà Nội Photographic Artists Association for Vietnamese and foreign photographers living in Việt Nam.
The organisers received more than 1,500 entries from 147 photographers.
The photos reflect smiling Vietnamese and foreign people while they are working, travelling or participating in cultural events.
Đào Xuân Hưng, editor-in-chief of the newspaper, said it was the first time they had hosted a photo contest.
“We wanted to create a playground for people who love photography and love Hà Nội. Each photo will help promote the culture and elegance of the city.”
The show will run until October 7 at the Exhibition House, 3 Đinh Tiên Hoàng Street, Hà Nội. — VNS
