Wine festival attracted to thousands of visitors in Ninh Thuan

More than 50,000 visitors attended the international grape and wine festival which was wrapped up in Ninh Thuan province on July 19, according to statistics released by the organizing board.

During the three-day event, visitors had an opportunity to savour the distinctive taste of great wines from 11 nations and localities nationwide and participate in fascinating folk games, boat races, photo exhibitions and a special art performance by local and foreign dancers and music bands.

Seminars were held during the event to discuss orientations for developing grape wine and tourism activities in the central coastal province.

The festival, co-organised by the provincial People’s Committee and King Star joint stock company, helped introduce Ninh Thuan province with the largest acreage of grape cultivation in Vietnam and honour growers who have applied advanced technologies to increase the economic value of local grapes.

In addition, the event offered a chance to introduce the region’s tourism potential and grape wine processing as well as increasing trade exchange between local and foreign businesses.
