Beijing (VNA) – Traditional Vietnamese art performances, rituals and folk games were among the highlights of the Vietnamese Culture Festival Day on November 22 in Guilin, China.

Speaking at the opening ceremony, Vice Rector of the University Bai Xiao Jun said Vietnamese students make up one of the biggest crowds of overseas students at the University, which serves students from 60 countries across the world.
