HA NOI — A souvenir design competition was launched on Thursday in Ha Noi to promote tourism.

The designs would be divided into State souvenirs and common souvenirs. The contest organisers have asked that they be unique and beautiful in order to present the identity of the people and the culture, tradition, costumes and landscape of the country.

Contestants have been encouraged to make their designs with durable materials that are safe, transportable and friendly to the environment.

Entries can be sent to the Department of Fine Arts, Photography and Exhibition at 38 Cao Ba Quat Street, Ha Noi, on June 10-20. — VNS
