Students in Hanoi, Vietnam, are all coming to ask for Chinese character posters to worship Confucius

On the first day of the new year, all the streets and alleys in Hanoi are closed, almost all shops are not open for business, even the Lotte Center store is closed. I had to go to the old town for a stroll. The Temple of Literature is really crowded with people. As one of the famous attractions in Hanoi, coupled with students and parents coming to worship Confucius, there are really too many tourists and locals inside. A New Year's market has opened across from the Temple of Literature, with many small stalls selling trinkets, and many calligraphy stalls selling characters. Many students come to ask for a Chinese character poster to worship Confucius. I found that those who can write Chinese characters are all old grandpas, and those with white hair and beards write the best and have the best business Those with black hair and younger ones can't write Chinese characters, they all write Vietnamese calligraphy For me, a Chinese person, seeing so many Chinese characters in Vietnam feels inexplicably intimate 🈺Location: Hồ Văn Cultural Village (opposite the main entrance of the Temple of Literature) 📍Address: P. Hồ Giám, Quốc Tử Giám, Đống Đa, Hà Nội
