The event in Phan Rang - Thap Cham city took place in the presence of President Vo Van Thuong and central and local officials.
The UNESCO recognition is an affirmation of Vietnam’s cultural identity in the world’s cultural heritage treasure. It also shows respect for women’s role in the modern society. From now on, the art becomes a common asset of humanity.
Cham pottery products are mainly household utensils, religious objects, and fine art works, including jars, pots, trays, and vases. They are made by women and viewed as an expression of individual creativity based on the knowledge transmitted within the community. It is interesting that, instead of using a turntable, the women revolve around the piece to shape it.
Meanwhile, with their industriousness and endless creativity, local residents have successfully grown many high-yield grape varieties, turning Ninh Thuan into a magnet of experience tourism for travelers.
The biennial Grape - Wine Festival is an occasion to honor farmers, entrepreneurs, and scientists, and seek opportunities for popularizing the brand of Ninh Thuan grapes and wine to the domestic and international markets.
Activities in celebration of the UNESCO certificate reception and the Grape - Wine Festival 2023 last from June 13 to 18./.
