Festival featuring ethnic cultural values to open
The cultural values of Vietnam, especially of the Cham ethnic minority people, will be spotlighted at the first ethnic cultural festival of the central and southeast regions, scheduled for June 16-19 in the central coastal province of Phu Yen.

Apart from joining in culinary activities and traditional forms of recreation, visitors to the fiesta will be offered a chance to deepen their understanding of the 54 ethnic groups inhabiting Vietnam through an exhibition by the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology.
