Northern region's largest park promotes Vietnamese culture
Hanoi (VNA) - The newly-open Bao Son Paradise park in Quoc Oai district of Hanoi has been the first of its kind offering attractions promoting Vietnamese culture.
The park, built at a cost of 50 million USD, considered the largest in
northern region, has entertainment facilities, traditional craft villages, a
replica of Ha Noi's old quarter, eco-tourist sites and restaurants offering
cuisine from all corners of Viet Nam .
Visitors can glimpse into the past lives of Hanoians by crossing O Quan
Chuong (Quan Chuong Gate) and stepping into the late 19th century and early
20th century on an area of 5,000sq.m.
Here, they can buy traditional products on display in nearly 20 houses
designed in traditional styles from that time in the old quarter.
Traditional craft villages in the park, meanwhile, cover an area of
10,000sq.m and feature products typical to craft villages: Van Phuc silk,
Phu Lang ceramics, gemstone-inlaid pictures, bamboo and rattan-made
handicrafts and embroidery.
There are banyan trees, water wells, and communal houses on display at each
craft village.
There is also a 2,000sq.m yard in the village for performances of
traditional songs, dances and music, and water puppetry.
The eco-tourist site in Bao Son Paradise park provides people plenty of
opportunities to learn about life on land and in the waters. It features a
royal garden with 500 orchid varieties of Viet Nam and other Southeast
Asian countries, a butterfly garden, an areca garden, a flower garden, a
lake, as well as dragon and Buddha statues. An "ocean world" that houses
2,000 fish species is just nearby.
Bao Son Paradise park also includes a 500-seat theatre, which can host
variety shows and cultural exchange programmes.
Its premises also feature an open-air and multipurpose stage on an area of
30,000sq.m with a capacity of 7,000 seats. This stage offer large
entertainment shows and local as well as regional events.
Children can watch exciting, fun-filled dolphin and seal shows, in two
daily showings in the weekday and four showings on Saturday and Sunday.
The park was put into operation in mid-August and has so far attracted
tens of thousands of visitors.-Enditem
