More than 20 countries across the globe are showcasing over 200 kites of
various shapes and colours at the Vietnam International Kite
Exhibition, which opened in the northern province of Nam Dinh on
June 28.
The three-day event aims to create a
playground for Vietnamese and international artisans to exchange and
learn from each other, contributing to highlighting the traditional
cultural features of people in the Red River Delta and the unique
characteristics of Hue kite art.
Along with a
number of traditional kites from the UK , Germany , Japan and
Cambodia , the Uncle Teu kite (8m long and 2m wide) made by the Hanoi
Kites Club, which has joined a number of international festivals, is
present at the event.
Nearly 30 kites decorated with
LED lights are expected to cheer up audiences in a night kite flying
performance on the same day.-VNA
