These activities aim to raise awareness of the importance of protecting and promoting the value of cultural heritage, while encouraging the people, especially the young generation, to preserve and promote national cultural values, thereby spurring patriotism and pride in Vietnamese cultural identity, according to the District 1 People’s Committee.

The administration recently launched several tourism products to promote cultural and historical values, including half-day tours allowing visitors to experience and explore the 300 years of culture and history of Ho Chi Minh City.

Image
Buon Ma Thuot not only has premium coffee with a unique delicious taste, but also many other famous delicacies such as wine, marinated chicken, fragrant rice tubes, and especially the excellent red vermicelli. Red vermicelli is a popular specialty of Dak Lak. Although there are some similarities with vermicelli in the South, the famous red vermicelli in the “capital of coffee” is very different. It has big, firm vermicelli, similar to Southern beef vermicelli but slightly better, about the size of a chopstick, chewy and crispy. Different from sophisticated dishes like pho in Hanoi, vermicelli with fish in Quy Nhon, bun bo Hue, or vermicelli in Can Tho, Ban Me red vermicelli is extremely rustic, strange, and especially delicious. At first glance, red vermicelli is quite similar to crab vermicelli, but this dish is made from pure crab meat, pureed pork and fat, vegetables, bean sprouts, and of course, boiled quail eggs.
