Hagens said Vietnam is well-known for the unique architecture used in floating houses, which inspires Western architecture and the architecture in general. John Nielsen, Danish Ambassador to Vietnam, said the exhibition reflects Vietnam’s traditions of protecting the environment for a sustainable future. The exhibition will be open until early next month in Hanoi. It will then move to Ho Chi Minh City and later to Denmark.
