The event was organised as part of activities to mark the 70th anniversary of the Vietnam-Mongolia diplomatic relations and welcome Lam and the Vietnamese delegation to the East Asian country.
Participants at the event were treated to a cultural feast spotlighting Vietnam’s traditional musical instruments while introducing the image of a Vietnam of peace, stability and huge development potential during international integration.
The Vietnamese Cultural Day will run until October 2 to promote mutual understanding as well as sound friendship and cooperation between the two peoples.
Earlier, Lam, Khurelsukh and the high-level delegations visited an exhibition featuring impressive photos on Vietnam’s UNESCO-recognised natural and cultural heritage items.
