Van Chan district holds poetry festival

Wednesday, February 8, 2023

A poetry festival has taken place on the occasion of the full moon day of the first lunar month in Van Chan district’s Nong truong Tran Phu town.

Authors together release to the sky balloons carrying papers printed with impressive poems.

Co-organised by the local chapter of the Yen Bai literature and art association, Yen Bai poetry lovers’ association, and many literature and poetry clubs, the event was a response to the annual Vietnam Poetry Day.

Participating authors and poets from the associations and clubs recited a host of poems that honour the Party, late President Ho Chi Minh, the people and land of Yen Bai, and the nation’s glorious history.

The festival helped gather poets and poetry lovers, nurture the soul of locals, and build the province with its motto of ‘green, harmony, identity, and happiness’.
