Vietnam attends immigrant festival in Belgium

The Overseas Vietnamese community in Belgium recently participated in the “New European Days” festival held at the Esplanade of the European Parliamentary in Brussels.

The event, organised by the New European Business Confederation, aims to honour the contributions and diverse cultures that the immigrants, or new Europeans, have brought to Europe. 
The Vietnamese participants displayed in their pavilion books and images of their home country, highlighting famous tourism sites, including Ha Long Bay, Phong Nha-Ke Bang cave, the ancient town of Hoi An, and Hue Imperial Citadel.
