Attendees were treated to a display of the Nguyen Dynasty's royal costumes, learned about woodblock prints of 'Truyen Kieu' (The Tale of Kieu), folk songs, and ancient proverbs, and enjoyed dishes with a strong Hue culinary flavour.
A heritage and peace youth forum was also organised within the framework of the event, which empowers young Vietnamese-Americans and young Vietnamese people who are living, studying, and working in the US to share their ideas and visions for the future.
Experts from the US Institute of Peace, scholars, and representatives from the Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam were invited to participate in a roundtable discussion with the youth, aiming to build a shared vision for a prosperous and peaceful Vietnam./.
