Fireworks show to light up Da Nang
Da Nang (VNA/VNS) - An international fireworks contest and lantern and painting exhibition will be featured at a month-long festival opening this week in Da Nang to celebrate the city's 34 th Liberation Day on March 29.
The fireworks contest, Am Vang Song Han (Echo in Han River) is slated for March 27
and 28 along the Han River, and has attracted well-known fireworks makers from
Vietnam , China , Australia and Spain .
The contest, after its success last year, has become an annual event.
Art lovers can contemplate centuries-old Go Sanh ceramics created by ancient Cham
artisans being displayed for the first time at the city's Cham Museum .
Museum officials have selected 100 ceramics from the city's Go Sanh Ancient
Ceramics Museum's collection for the exhibition which ends on April 5.
Hundreds of statues sculpted by Non Nuoc village stone-carvers are on display on
Bach Dang Street overlooking the Han River . Located at the foot of the Ngu
Hanh Son Marble Mountain in Da Nang , the bustling village has been
well-known for its stone craft for more than 400 years.
Statues featuring young women from the northern, central and southern regions and
other fine works have captured the imagination of viewers.
Older members of the Da Nang Fine Arts Association have sent more than 50 oil and
lacquer paintings to an art exhibition that remains open from March 23 to 31 at
Trung Vuong Theatre. The paintings show the changes in Da Nang since liberation.
Artists from Sichuan , China have created more than 20 flower garlands and
colour lanterns for a display titled Khuc Bien Tau Cua Sac Mau (Variations of

Chinese artists have been in Da Nang for two weeks to work on the splendid
garlands and lanterns bearing the images of the goddess of Mercy, and other items
like Vuon Dao ( Peach Garden ) and Aladdin and the Magic Lamp.
Other events will include a food festival, a performance by Indian band Something
