The contestants of Miss Grand International 2023 had the opportunity to visit a famous historical site in Hanoi on October 5. They were captivated by the beautifully crafted frames showcasing the development of Hanoi.
The historical grandeur of the monument is enhanced by 60 stunning females dressed in vibrantly colored ao dai, or traditional long Vietnamese women’s dresses.
During their pageant, the contestants also visited prominent landmarks in Hanoi such as Sword Lake, Ngoc Son Temple, and Temple of Literature. This month-long event, taking place from October 3 to 25, will bring the beauties to various locations in Vietnam, including Halong, Danang, Hoi An, Hue, and Ho Chi Minh City. It presents a great opportunity for Vietnam to promote tourism globally through photos and videos of the contestants.
On October 5, the “Hanoi in My Heart” photo exhibition with the theme “Hanoi – 15 years after administrative border extension” was inaugurated at the Temple of Literature-Imperial Academy. Organized by the Economic & Urban Newspaper in collaboration with the Hanoi Elderly Photography Club, this exhibition showcases the allure of Hanoi.

Hanoi’s streets are becoming increasingly crowded and traditional features can sometimes be hidden behind modern life. But if one takes the time to relax and look around, the ancient features begin to reveal themselves.
