Vietnam–RoK youth engage in lively exchange activities

With its notable features in terms of economy, culture, history, and nature, Dong Nai has established cooperative relations with many localities, including Gyeongnam Province and Jeollanam Province (the Republic of Korea – RoK).

To further strengthen the friendship and cooperation between Dong Nai Province and RoK provinces, from August 4 to 7 and from August 11 to 14, two youth delegations from Gyeongnam Province and Jeollanam Province visited Dong Nai for cultural exchange activities.

During their stay, the youth from the two provinces took part in various engaging experiences, such as trying on Vietnam’s traditional Ao Dai costume; visiting and learning at the Tran Bien Temple of Literature historical site and Dong Nai Museum; exploring traditional pottery villages; enjoying large-scale tourist destinations in Dong Nai; and interacting with local students.

Through these exchange activities, young people from Dong Nai, Gyeongnam Province, and Jeollanam Province (RoK) had the opportunity to deepen their understanding of the history, culture, and people of both Vietnam and the RoK. These efforts help to further solidify the bonds of friendship and cooperation between Dong Nai and the two RoK provinces in particular, and between Vietnam and the RoK in general.
