LAM DONG  (VNS) — Farmers in Da Lat flower villages in the Central Highlands province of Lam Dong are busy preparing for Culture and Tourism Week 2013 from December 27 to December 31.

In the Thai Phien flower village in Commune 12, farmers have scattered seeds of daisies, carnations and lilies on 30ha to serve the festival.

Ho Ngoc Dinh, chairman of the local farmers’ association said that along with introducing flowers at the festival, the village will welcome travellers who want to learn about traditional flower plant activities.

In other places, farmers are setting up the 120m-rose road to welcome the event.

The week includes eight main events and 15 other programmes to meet the demand of domestic and international tourists.

The main events are the Da Lat Flower Festival, UNESCO Cultural Heritage Festival and another one to promote the Tay Nguyen-Da Lat National Tourism Year 2014. — VNS
