The 107 photos were sorted out from 4,573 entries by 526 authors to mark the 73rd signing anniversary of the Decree on preserving national cultural heritages by president Ho Chi Minh.
The best 107 entries feature nature, tangible and intangible culture and lifestyle of Vietnam, alongside with the topics Vietnamese Traditional Long Dress and Travel with Vietjet.
A similar exhibition will take place in Ho Chi Minh City on November 3, together with the 2018 Canon Photo Marathon tournament. The awarding ceremony is scheduled to take place in Ho Chi Minh City in late November.

With a fully constructed layout, the work “Huong Tet” highlighted the traditional features of Vietnamese Tet (Lunar New Year Festival); meanwhile the series ‘Le Wa Ha’ reproduced a traditional festival of Cham Bani people in the South-Central region.
