Ha said the 5 million USD centre - funded by the Vietnam Veterans Association of the Republic of Korea (VVAK) - will include an exhibition centre, vocational and Korean language training, a Taekwondo gym and major space for hosting annual cultural activities of South Korea and Vietnam.
The centre, located near the historic town of Hoi An and the newly-unveiled 8km Ha My Beach, aims to draw South Korean tourists and other foreign visitors.
In October, the Korean-Vietnamese Peace Foundation donated 52 items — including documents, photos, books, visual dics, postcards and the "Vietnam Pieta" statue — to Da Nang’s museum to commemorate 41 years since the end of the Vietnam war.-VNA
