A lively 3D aquarium combined with modern lighting has just been installed at the pedestrian overpass on Tran Nhat Duat Street, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi.

This is the latest street art project carried out by artist Vu Xuan Dong and his colleagues.

According to curator Nguyen The Son, the aquarium walking bridge is a unique creation that combines both contemporary and traditional Vietnamese elements. "The project is inspired by the beauty of the ocean, combined with the painting "Ca chep vuot vu mon" or "Carp Pass Heaven's Gate to Become a Dragon" from the Hang Trong folk painting," he said.

The bridge arch is transformed into a large aquarium with dozens of vibrant and eye-catching fish models. On both sides of the bridge are impressive contemporary lighting installations. In addition, the stairs leading up to the bridge are decorated with two Hang Trong folk paintings. Meanwhile, under the bridge is a 3D mural called "Paper Boats."

The creators of the Aquarium Pedestrian Bridge project have previously participated in many public art projects on Phuc Tan and Phung Hung streets in Hoan Kiem District.
