With a length of 500m and a width of 14m, this “artistic road” was completed by painter Nguyen Thu Thuy - the founder of the Hanoi Ceramic Road - and her associates within just five days. This “artistic road” is designed based on inspiration from a song by the late famous musician Trinh Cong Son, for whom the street is named after. |
The road is adorned with zigzag patterns in four colors, representing Hanoi autumn in a song of the musician, including yellow-green, red-orange, white, and red-violet. |
Painter Nguyen Thu Thuy said that she wishes to spread the romantic spirit in Trinh Cong Son’s music to visitors to the place. |
