Thang Long Imperial Citadel is designed to honour the beauty of Ao Dai, with more than 100 booths of designers, artisans, tourism organisations and localities.

Within the framework of the Festival, the Ao Dai Carnival took place on the morning of October 5.

This is a large-scale art performance and parade organised by the Hanoi Women's Union in coordination with the Department of Tourism to spread the love of Ao Dai to numerous people, friends and international tourists of all ages and genders.

More than 1,000 women wearing Ao Dai will parade through the streets around the Thang Long Imperial Citadel and pass by famous heritages. At the same time, Ao Dai performances will also take place in many localities across the city.
