Young Hanoians enjoy the melodious sound of wind bells at the Japanese Furin Wind Bell Festival, which was held last weekend on Duong Thanh Street. Furin, which are usually made of glass, ceramic or metal, are a Japanese craft that provides a refreshing ring as the wind blows. In Japan, they are popular during summer and usually hung from the eaves of houses or in front of windows. Furin are also placed in each of the four corners of temples to protect them from evil.—VNA/VNS Photo Thanh Tung
