Participating in the festival, Dong Nai designed and set up an impressive stage of books, along with performing some interesting arts items and organizing a rite of procession for Tran Bien Dong Nai Spirit work to honor artisans and embroiderers.
Le Cong Hanh, whose real name was Tran Quoc Khai, was a mandarin in the 16th century. He brought high levels of the craft back from China - and taught people in his homeland. Gradually, the art spread until Viet Nam was producing its own unique type of embroidery.
