This is an annual activity of the city aimed at promoting tourism in the capital while honouring, preserving, and spreading the unique intangible cultural values of the Vietnamese traditional dress.
A Vietnamese costume parade will be held as part of the festival, expected to be the largest-ever of its kind with thousands of participants in traditional costumes of the three regions across Việt Nam.
More than 35 collections of calendars for 2015 (the Year of the Goat)
are on display at a Book and Calendar Week that opened at the weekend in
HCM City.
