Participants learning how to make handicraft products
During the event, the participants had chance to contemplate China’s ancient music instruments and handicraft products as well as photos reflecting the beauty of China’s Capital City. They were also impressed by folk music instruments and traditional magic performances.  

The Chinese head delegate stressed that the event would contribute to fostering exchange and cooperation in culture and tourism between the Vietnamese and Chinese capital cities as well as promoting the two countries’ mutual understanding and respect for each other’s culture.

Like other Asian countries, Vietnam celebrates its traditional Lunar New Year festival. She said that the exchange was a happy New Year message to the Vietnamese.

Initiated in 2014 by the People’s Committee of Beijing’s Xi Cheng district, the big cultural event has been organized in ASEAN member countries, such as Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Indonesia, and Thailand and received enthusiastic welcome from local people.
