The Hanoi Department of Tourism has worked with local businesses and organisations to launch a green tourism promotion campaign, enhance safety and traffic management, and improve public spaces for visitors.
A new public art installation titled Revival has been unveiled at Co Tan Garden near the Hanoi Opera House as part of the city’s beautification efforts.
