Thousands flock to Dong Hoi Carnaval 2018
Thousands of on-lookers have gone out to the streets with many models and beauty pageants to celebrate the colourful Dong Hoi Carnaval 2018.
As the carnival coincided with the opening of the Hung Kings' Festival on May 25, it attracted a large number of local people as well as tourists to Dong Hoi City. Dancers and beauty pageant winners such as singer Phuong Anh and the runner-up of Miss Ocean Vietnam 2017 Dang Thanh Ngan on elaborated and colourful costumes walked the streets and stirred up the atmosphere.
Four groups including teachers and students started from different locations and paraded through four main routes to the Nhat Le Bridge. Three ao dai collections by designer Nhat Dung were shown at the carnaval and impressed many on-lookers.
The culture-tourism week consists of many other activities and events such as folk songs, food festival and boat racing. This is the first time Quang Binh’s provincial authorities have organised such a week as previous years were organised by local authorities.
