“Rivers of Viet Nam” photo exhibition comes to Ha Noi

The “Rivers of Viet Nam” photo exhibition opened at the Foreign Trade University in Ha Noi on November 8, displaying 100 photos selected from more than 5,440 submissions to the Viet Nam heritage contest 2016.
This is the fourth out of eight planned exhibitions of the contest, which will last until November 11.
Before Ha Noi, the photos were displayed in Ho Chi Minh City, Phan Thiet City, and Nha Trang City.
They will continue to be exhibited until the Lunar New Year festival at the Ho Chi Minh City Youth Culture House, the Cham Museum in Da Nang and the Ha Noi-based Museum of Ethnology.
The photo contest, the fifth of its kind organised so far in Viet Nam, attracted 507 photographers, including 14 foreign ones.
It aims to encourage people to discover Viet Nam’s natural and cultural heritages, with excellent photos to appear on Vietnam Heritage magazine.
The award ceremony will be held in Ho Chi Minh City on November 18.
