This year’s festival drew the participation of six Asian countries, namely Indonesia, Thailand, India, Japan, the Republic of Korea and Vietnam.
Addressing the opening ceremony, Vietnam Ambassador to the Czech Republic Ho Minh Tuan said the event helps the Czech people gain a better understanding about Asian cultures, including that of Vietnam.
Visitors to the festival were very impressed by shows of Vietnam songs and dances and Ao Dai traditional dress. They also enjoyed favourite dishes like noodle soup and spring rolls and tropical fruits such as coconut, watermelon, jackfruit, longan and papaya.
Jean Di Raffaele, an Italian person working in the Czech Republic, said he has traveled to many countries in the world except Vietnam. He really wants to visit Vietnam in the coming time to discover its beautiful beaches, hospitable people and unique culture.
Vietnam has held many culture, sports and tourism events in the Czech Republic to promote its land, people, culture and tourism potential and strengthen bilateral friendly relations.
