Located in the Mekong Delta city of Can Tho, the region’s commercial center, the festival will also include a seminar on tourism development in the delta.
The opening ceremony will be held on the banks of Hau River, Vietnam’s largest Mekong branch, in Ninh Kieu District’s Cai Khe Ward on December 2.
