Over recent days, all relevant agencies have put in a great deal of effort to ensure that Da Nang is fully prepared for the 5th Asian Beach Games (ABG5). The event, which has ‘Shining Sea, Bright Future’ as its theme, will finally open tomorrow and run until 3 October.
A total of around 10,000 athletes, coaches, referees, technical officials and staff members from international sports federations from 42 countries and territories will attend.
Here are some photos, taken by our reporters Anh Vu and Dang No, ahead of this international event.
