The third Buon Ma Thuot Coffee festival will be officially opened in the Central Highlands city of Buon Ma Thuot on March 12, expecting to send out Vietnamese coffee aroma far beyond the country.

To herald the event, a showcase of 100 news and art photos relating to coffee was held on the Dak Lak museum on March 11, introducing the coffee production and processing of the Central Highlands’s ethnic groups to visitors.

Also at the showcase are 139 historical items and 100 photos of the CADA plantation, one of the first coffee plantations in the Central Highlands, which is currently Vietnam ’s largest coffee-growing area. These things recall the misery suffered by the Vietnamese people under the oppression of the feudal and colonial regimes.

Besides, 10,000 objects and types of coffees from the world are being exhibited in the Dak Lak museum. Those things will later form a world coffee museum which is to be located in the Trung Nguyen Coffee Village.

On this occasion, a series of cultural activities took place in Bon Don district to cheer the Buon Ma Thuot Coffee Festival and celebrate the 36 th anniversary of Buon Ma Thuot’s liberation (March 10)./.
