Digital technologies like 3D mapping, kinetic LED systems, interactive walls, and virtual reality allow visitors to immerse themselves in and interact with the exhibition.
Dang Phan Diep, Director General of Vietsoftpro, a partner company supporting the exhibition, said that the exhibition spaces create a journey that tells Hanoi’s historical and cultural stories through multiple art forms.
“We present each story through lighting, sound, and multiple languages, and there are interactive experiential spaces like ‘Future Hanoi’ that feature VR experiences, and spaces that look back into the past. Each technology, each story, takes a different approach to helping the public understand and love Hanoi more,” said Diep.

The exhibition highlights the elements that shape Hanoi’s identity, including its thousand-year history, its distinctive urban landscape, its rich folk heritage, and its aspiration to be a dynamic, creative capital in the digital age.
“The exhibition is presented in a very modern form. With spring approaching, it feels lively and uplifting, making people feel inspired and optimistic. What impressed me most was the harmonious combination of tradition and modernity, and the exhibition’s very fresh perspective on Hanoi,” said a visitor.
Another added, “I was most impressed by the VR360 experience area. The technology allows young people like me to experience Vietnam’s cultural heritage. The way the exhibition is organized - the visuals and the careful details - made me feel that Hanoi had been miniaturized within the exhibition. It was wonderful.”
