| In early 2000s, Graffiti started it journey in Viet Nam not long after Rap Music arrived in 2002. It was around 2003 when a Hanoian graphic designer painted his first drawings on walls in Tinh Gia district, Thanh Hoa province. |

| The street art scene is young in Vietnam, but the preliminary art looks very promising. |
 |
| Most of the graffiti in features tags and throw ups of particular artists. |
