reproduced woodblocks “Chieu doi Do” (the royal proclamation to change
the capital city) and 1,000 copies of two books on Thang Long-Hanoi
featuring the Nguyen dynasty woodblocks, to the Hanoi People’s Committee
on September 24.
The head of the department Vu
Thi Minh Huong said that the woodblocks are the same size as the
original ones, which are 20x29.5cm and 3cm thick.
The original engraved woodblocks, which were discovered by the
National Archives Centre, were used by King Ly Cong Uan and include 214
Chinese characters.
As part of activities to
mark the 1,000 th anniversary of Thang Long-Hanoi, an exhibition of oil
paintings by Croatian artist Anna Tzarev will also be opened in Hanoi
on September 24.
Her paintings of flowers
originate from a famous porcelain painting “Con duong gom su ven song
Hong” (the path along the banks of the Red River ) which will be opened
on the capital city’s millennial birthday.
Other activities include a performance by 18 Vietnamese circus artists
and 19 from a Spanish troupe at the Dragon festival, at the My Dinh
national stadium in Hanoi on October 2.
The programme will include music, the circus, dancing and a firework display./.
