Close to 10,000 people will join a walk around Hoan Kiem Lake on June 13 to celebrate the 1,000th anniversary of Thang Long-Hanoi.

The information was released at a press conference in Hanoi on June 9.

The participants, including students and school children, athletes and their coaches, foreigners and the staff from Hanoi-based embassies and consulate general, will walk along the main streets around Hoan Kiem Lake.
