VTV.vn - The vibrant lives of elderly people in different places across Vietnam are being featured in a photo exhibition, “Timeless”, opened on September 29th in Hanoi.

The week-long exhibition is co-organized by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and the General Office for Population and Family Planning. This is in celebration of the 2015 ‘International Day of Older Persons’, which encourages society to re-examine their views on the elderly .

These seniors’ stories were captured in 15 sets of photos taken by photographer Na Son. In each set of photos, the elderly share what they have experienced in life, while their children and grandchildren voice their own expectations for the future. The event will last until October 3rd.
