Cultural festival to introduce Japanese traditional New Year
(VOV) -A cultural festival to welcome Japanese traditional New Year (Oshogatsu) will take place at Hanoi University of Science and Technology (HUST) on January 24.

Participants will have chance to get better understanding on unique Japanese culture including customs, traditions, cuisine and traditional games.
During the event, a wide array of activities such as music performance, photo exhibition, Yosakoi dances, and yukata (an informal, unlined kimono made of cotton) wearing will also be held.
The programme is organised by the Institute of Information and Communication Technologies under HUST, and Japanese language club Hedspi Nichibu.
