Hanoi (VNA) – The Vietnam News Agency Publishing House recently launched two photo books featuring the beauty of the Vietnamese people as well as sea and islands and President Ho Chi Minh’s contributions to the struggle for national independence and reunification to mark the 70th anniversary of the capital city’s Liberation Day (October 10).

Entitled “Homeland on the Ocean’s Edge” with 153 photos from the national art photo contest, one book introduces the potential of the Vietnamese sea and islands and their important role in the national construction and defence. The art works instill a sense of sea and island sovereignty among the Vietnamese citizens.

Meanwhile, the “Uncle Ho with Ba Dinh” spotlights the historic moment when the President read the Declaration of Independence, giving birth to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (now the Socialist Republic of Vientam), at Hanoi’s Ba Dinh Square on September 2, 1945. It brings back the heroic and vibrant atmosphere on the first day of independence and displays the sentiments of locals in Ba Dinh district and the late leader.

The two books boost patriotism, solidarity, and responsible among every citizen in building, protecting, and developing the nation. They are valuable resources that spread the spirit of patriotism to people from all walks of life, particularly the younger generation, instilling their pride of the past and confidence in the future./.
