The International Kite Festival closed at Vung Tau Town's Bien Dong Ocean Park Sunday after three days of scintillating performances.
More than 20,000 tourists visited the town last weekend to watch the 300 kites that were flown by 115 artisans from 17 nations and territories.
This is the first International Kite Festival held in Vietnam. Many prizes were awarded in the non-competitive festival. For instance, the French team had the most strangely-shaped kite, while the Australian team had the liveliest kite. Reported by Kim Nga Source : thanhniennews.com
