India is known as a country with a long history of development with a brilliant civilization along the Ganges River, along with many tangible and intangible cultural heritages representing humanity. Among them, intangible cultural heritages such as music, traditional dances and especially Yoga - a scientific system of physical and mental training have contributed to enriching the enormous cultural treasure of human civilization.
Hoi An city is a destination that receives attention and attracts a large number of Indian tourists to visit and experience. The fact that Hoi An was chosen as one of the destinations for the Vietnam - India art tour and exchange has once again affirmed Hoi An's position and openness in international cultural exchange and integration.
This further demonstrates the city's determination to fulfill its commitments to UNESCO when joining the Creative Cities Network with the initiative of the Global Creative House - a place for artists and experts to perform, exchange and practice creativity; as well as the orientation to develop Hoi An into a foreign relations center of Quang Nam province.
