Mr. Tong Quang Thin - Vice Chairman of Ninh Binh Provincial People's Committee (Head of Festival Organizing Committee) said that the highlight of the 3rd Ninh Binh Festival is the Opening Program.
The theme "Vietnamese Sausage Heritage Series" is inspired by the historical journey of the Vietnamese people - the journey of establishing, moving and settling the capital of the emperors.
The journey will connect the heritage with 3 highlights of 3 ancient capitals, including: Hoa Lu Capital, Thang Long Capital and Hue Capital - all of which are World Cultural Heritages recognized by UNESCO, the Vietnamese sausagey stream of more than a millennium of Vietnamese history. That historical Vietnamese sausagey stream has formed unique and valuable cultural, historical and architectural heritages of the nation, lasting over time.
“This is the first time the art program “Vietnamese Sausage Heritage Series” has been built in a cinematic style as a vivid “historical historical film” performed in a theatrical form combining music, dance and cinema with modern and unique performance technology on a 3D mapping moving stage, to decode legendary and historical stories and reveal the layers of sediment hidden deep underground about the brilliant quintessence of the ancient capitals” - Mr. Thin said.
With a series of outstanding activities, the 3rd Ninh Binh Festival in 2024 promises to leave audiences and visitors with unforgettable emotions and impressions. Thereby, contributing to promoting the image, culture and people of the ancient capital of Hoa Lu - Ninh Binh to domestic and international tourists.
At the same time, realize the policy and orientation of Ninh Binh province to become a centrally-governed city by 2035 with the characteristics of a millennium heritage urban area, a creative city, a large center of high value in tourism, cultural industry and organization of national, regional and international events.
