Two years ago, French researcher Olivier Tessier, chief of the Ha
Noi-based Ecole Francaise d''Extreme-Orient (French School of Asian
Studies), was granted the "Bui Xuan Phai – Love for Ha Noi" award for
his research on Ha Noi''s Ancient Citadel.
"Ha Noi''s Days and Nights in 1972," an exhibit of
photos of Ha Noi taken during the 1972 US B52 aerial bombardment of the
city, will open tonight at the French Cultural Centre.
