VOV.VN - The largest annual fruit festival will return to Suoi Tien Theme Park in Ho Chi Minh City from June 1 to August 31, drawing the debut participation of several friendship associations.
The Friendship Associations of Vietnam-ASEAN, Vietnam-India, Vietnam-Indonesia, and Vietnam-Cambodia will bring art performances to the event, helping to strengthen friendship and solidarity between Vietnam and other regional countries.
The festival will offer fun activities, including an exhibition of exotic fruits from countries around the world that are planted in Suoi Tien Farm, a fruit market, and a food fair.
Furthermore, more than 20 dishes made from fruits and typical dishes across the country are set to be cooked by chefs at the festival.
A carving art competition with fruit and vegetables is expected to attract many craftsmen from Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai and Binh Duong provinces, along with some neighbouring localities. The contest will present colourful pieces of works, thereby introducing the traditional culture to the world and deeply portraying national pride.
Visitors will be able to contemplate a collection featuring many kinds of fruits nationwide.
