A Vietnam Culture Day was held on April 26 in Prague, to introduce Vietnamese cultural traditions to people in the Czech Republic.
The event was organised by the Vietnamese Embassy and Vietnamese Association in the country in coordination with the Czech National Gallery.
As part of the ongoing Vietnamese art exhibition in the city, the event embraced a series of activities, such as traditional art performances, Vietnamese handicraft display and an Ao dai (long dress) show.
Addressing the opening ceremony, Ambassador Truong Manh Son spoke highly of the Gallery’s idea to hold the event, saying that it contributes to further fostering mutual understanding and the all-round cooperation between the two countries and their people.
