Vietnam’s Seniors Exemplify Healthy Ageing Habits

In a series of photographs published by the World Health Organisation entitled “Healthy Ageing in Vietnam” elderly residents in Hanoi are shown partaking in group exercise in Ngoc Lam Garden.

Across the city, elderly residents gather by the hundreds for tai chi, brisk walks, dance sessions and workouts on outdoor fitness equipment.

The daily ritual reflects a broader pattern across the city, where parks and lakeside promenades double as informal health clubs.
