Photo exhibition introduces Vietnamese culture in Mexico
VOV.VN - A photo exhibition showcasing Vietnamese culture, landscapes, and people opened on November 9 in Mexico with the aim of introducing local people to a dynamic and charming Vietnam.
The event took place as part of activities being held to celebrate the 50th anniversary since the establishment of diplomatic relations between both sides.
Upon addressing the opening ceremony, Mariana Flores Mayen, representative of the Government of Mexico City, emphasised that through 30 vivid and colourful photos, Mexican people and international friends are able to gain greater insights into Vietnam, its land, and people, as well as the country’s numerous socio-economic development achievements.
She revealed that the occasion is expected to attract roughly 500,000 visitors from November 9 to December 5.
For his part, Jose Manuel Gonzales, director of the Mexican Capital Historical Center, stated that he was really impressed by the artworks displayed at the exhibition, adding that that the function has helped visitors to explore the inner beauty and character of Vietnamese people.
Meanwhile, Vietnamese Ambassador to Mexico Nguyen Hoanh Nam expressed his hope that along with elevating the nation’s image and its people, the exhibition will provide people of both countries with further opportunities to strengthen mutual understanding, thereby deepening the solidarity and friendship that exists between the two countries moving forward.
Earlier in late October, the Vietnamese Embassy in Mexico also joined the ASEAN Bazaar Culinary and Cultural Festival in Mexico City with the goal of promoting ASEAN’s numerous landscapes, culture, and people.
