As part of a series of cultural activities to celebrate the 68^th anniversary of Viet Nam’s August Revolution (19 August) and its National Day (2 September), a news and arts photo exhibition entitled “Sea and Islands of our Native Lands” will take place at Da Nang’s Cultural Centre, 1A Phan Dang Luu Street, from 31 August - 4 September. 

Co-organised by the centre and the Han River Artistic Photography Club, the exhibition will feature about 80 photos taken by local amateur and professional photographers.   The photos on display will reflect the peaceful life of local residents, and give a glimpse of those involved in exploiting the sea’s resources and protecting the country’s sovereignty over its sea.

The event aims to raise the public’s awareness of the strategic location of Viet Nam’s sea and islands.
