Hanoi (VNS/VNA) - Various activities featuring the cultures of Vietnam and the Repulic of Korea (RoK) are taking place on March 10-11 in Sa Pa town of Lao Cai northern province, as part of the 'Korean Culture Day in Lao Cai-Sa Pa 2023' programme.

The Korean Cultural Center is implementing the programme in collaboration with the Department of Culture and Sports of Lao Cai province and the People's Committee of Sa Pa town.

The Korea Tourism Organisation Office in Vietnam, the Korea Creative Content Agency, the Korea Copyright Protection Agency, and relevant departments in Lao Cai also support the programme.

Sa Pa is a well-known tourist destination in Vietnam that many Koreans visit because of the breathtaking scenery, friendly people and rich cuisine. 

The event will begin at 4pm on March 10 and include cultural experiences such as trying traditional costumes, eating traditional food and participating in folk games. 

The art performance night, which will take place at 7.30pm on March 11, will be the programme's highlight.

Famous Vietnamese singers, as well as music and dance groups such as Van Mai Hương, Pha Le, K-pop cover dance group The A-code, and Minh Toc & Lam music group, will perform.

The Korean Cultural Center hopes this programme will be an opportunity for Vietnamese people to understand Korean culture better. This is also the chance to strengthen further cultural exchanges between the people of Vietnam and South Korea after the two countries upgrade diplomatic relations to the level of 'comprehensive strategic partnership'.
