The exhibits include 55 photos by VNA journalists, capturing historical moments of the friendship and solidarity between Vietnam and Laos, and reflecting the cooperation between the two nations in politics, socio-economy, culture, and security-national defence during the past struggle for national liberation and the current cause of national construction and protection.

The event is a significant activity to mark the 55th anniversary of Vietnam-Laos diplomatic ties and the 40th anniversary of the signing of the Vietnam-Laos Treaty on Amity and Cooperation.
Earlier, LPRP General Secretary and President of Laos Bounnhang Vorachith and his delegation laid wreaths at the Monument to War Heroes and Martyrs and paid tribute to President Ho Chi Minh at his mausoleum.
