Photo exhibition on Dong Van stone plateau

A photo exhibition to promote tourism and products of Dong Van Stone Plateau in the northern mountainous province of Ha Giang is being held in Dong Van town.

The exhibition is held by the Management Board of Dong Van Stone Plateau Global Geo-Park in coordination with the Dong Van district People’s Committee and the Youth Newspaper.

The organizing board will present local ethnic people with the most beautiful photos made by photographers in this place. Diverse cultural activities such as art performances are being held during the exhibition. Perhaps best of all, tourists can enjoy special foods of the plateau.

According to Dr. Nguyen Le Huy, head of the Management Board of Dong Van Stone Plateau Global Geo-Park, this is an opportunity to introduce the land and people of Dong Van, which is the northern terminus of the nation and vital for ensuring border security and national sovereignty.

UNESCO officially recognised the plateau as a global geo-park in November 2011.(Source: CPV)
