The Vietnam National Village for Ethnic Culture and Tourism, in the Dong Mo tourism area of Son Tay town in Hanoi, is hosting a programme celebrating the cultural diversity and customs of the Central Highlands region this June.

Gong performances are an indispensable part of the programme
The programme has attracted around 90 ethnic people from 12 groups in
the region, including Ta Oi, Co Tu, Raglai, E De, and Khmer, among others.
The programme introduces visitors to folk songs and
lullabies of the Central Highlanders, as well as the making of their
traditional musical instruments and cloth weaving.
A cooking contest, gong performances, sporting events and
folk games are also indispensable parts of the month-long event.
Notably, children visiting the village can register for a
free training course on experiencing the Buddhist monastic life. During the
two-day courses, on June 2-3 and June 16-17, participants will learn about
Buddhist rituals and Buddha’s teachings on humanism and being a well behaved
child.
During June, a number of traditional festivals of ethnic
groups will be held in the village, such as a new house warming ceremony by the
Cham group from Ninh Thuan, and the ceremony of brotherhood and longevity
celebration by the Ede
people in Dak Lak province.
