The event marks the 179th anniversary of the Trung Sisters Uprising and the 109th International Women’s Day. At the event, participants in ao dai created a giant ancient tree at HCM City’s centre, which aimed to convey a message of a green and peace-loving city. Nguyen Thi Ngoc Bich, Chairwoman of Ho Chi Minh City Women’s Union, said:“The ao dai has been very close to the lives of people in Ho Chi Minh city. The Ao Dai Festival has conveyed people’s love of Vietnamese traditional dress. We are very happy that the festival has contributed to preserving and promoting traditional culture of the nation and become a special cultural event of our city.
