According to a Vietnam News Agency correspondent in Washington, DC, Ambassador of Vietnam to the US Nguyen Quoc Dung introduced the country’s rich history, unique and diverse cultural traditions, and the hardworking, intelligent, resilient, and hospitable people of Vietnam.

He also highlighted the accomplishments achieved in Vietnam-US diplomatic relations.

The event featured three main segments: a presentation on Vietnam’s economy, trade, and investment opportunities; a fashion show of traditional costumes representing Vietnam’s three regions; and a culinary reception showcasing Vietnamese cuisine.

The traditional fashion showcase captivated the audience with vibrant, colorful attire from Vietnam’s northern ethnic minorities, along with the Southern ao ba ba, the Northern ao tu than, and the iconic ao dai, all set to Vietnamese music.
