Almost a month has gone by since the time the exhibition ‘‘Stories of Markets“ opened, the Vietnamese Women’s Museum has received thousands of visitors to view and experience the display. Visitors included foreign and domestic individuals and groups, especially many families who live in Hanoi of which there comprised many elderly people. From the feedback of visitors, we know that most of them has a common feeling: that the exhibition “Stories of Markets“ reminded them of their childhood memories, life in the past and the present as well also their anxiety and concern on the changes and the dissapearance of market places – a typical cultural aspect of Hanoi.

Toro Kingdom’s Prime Minister Steven Kaliba and Crown Prince Jag We Ali have just paid a visit to the Vietnamese Women’s Museum (VWM) during his stay in Vietnam for the UN Vesak 2014 to be held in Ninh Binh province.

"Village Market" is an event running alongside the exhibition “Stories of Markets” by the Vietnamese Women’s Museum. Both events are held in cooperation with Tinh Thuong Microfinance Institution – TYM and commemorate the occasion of the 104th International Women’s Day, March 8th, 2014.

A common trend for modern museums in the world is getting the community involved in the museum’s activities and offering suitable services. The Vietnamese Women’s Museum is following this trend.

The “Children in the wartime” exhibition by the Vietnamese Women’s Museum was warmly welcomed by the teachers and pupils in the school’s traditional room on the morning of Nov. 26th.

The exhibition not only reminded the teachers of their childhood war memories but also raised the pupil’s curiosity about the lively photographs of how pupils lived, worked, and went to school under war conditions 40 years ago.
