More than 40 artisans from traditional craft villages in Hoi An and Hanoi directly guided visitors to make lanterns, Thanh Ha pottery, and Kim Bong wooden products.

Folk singing performances such as: Sac bua singing (Tet greeting), Ba trao singing (the traditional singing by fishermen in Quang Nam), and Bai choi singing (a popular folklore style of singing in central provinces) were held during the two days.

Notably, tourists can also taste specialties of Hoi An and Quang Nam such as Mi Quang (Quang noodles), Cao lau noodles, Banh hoa hong (white rose cake), and others.

The highlight of the programme was the space recreating the ancient town Hoi An at the museum campus with lanterns and ancient houses in addition to the performances of traditional crafts and folk games./.
