(VOV) - A flower festival and trade fair honouring craft villages and high-quality agricultural produce will be held in Hanoi next Wednesday to welcome the Lunar New Year festival, Tet. Vuong Duy Bien, Deputy Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism and head of the organisation board, said that the fair not only highlights the best products of craft villages but also serves people’s shopping needs for Tet, the year’s biggest traditional celebration. The organising board hopes this will be an annual event in the next years.

Nearly 100 products made from traditional materials, 100 calligraphic works and parallel sentences for Tet will be displayed at the event. There will also be 200 stalls selling quality farm produce from Hanoi’s villages, such as lotus-scented tea, Ba Vi milk, Canh orange, and organic vegetables.
