Featuring musical performances and Vietnamese signature dishes, the event helped to connect the Vietnamese expats and left a strong impression on participating Bangladeshi friends.

Sanjida Haque, a Bangladeshi heritage official, said it is the first time she has experienced Vietnam’s traditional Tet celebration, adding that she is impressed by the colourful ao dai (Vietnamese traditional long dress) and local food.

She said thanks to promotion efforts made by the embassy and expat community, Vietnamese culinary delights and culture are becoming more popular among Bangladeshis and foreigners in the country.
