HCMC – The French Consulate General in HCMC has opened a photo exhibition in District 1 today, October 18, which promotes France as a tourist destination.
The photographs are on display on the concrete wall fence of the French Consulate General building in HCMC till late January 2024.
The exhibition serves as an introduction to 14 activities that travelers can explore during their vacation in France, ranging from ziplining, and scuba diving to visiting castles, showcasing a rich experience France has to offer.
Emmanuelle Pavillon-Grosser, consul general of France in HCMC, shared her insights with The Saigon Times, saying the importance of diversifying the imagery that the Vietnamese hold of France.
She noted that while the Eiffel Tower stands as an iconic symbol of France, the exhibition aims to shed light on France’s natural beauty and a variety of activities the European country offers. The hope is that this event will inspire more people to consider France their travel destination, which is the fundamental goal of this initiative.
For more than 30 years, France has been one of the world’s leading tourist destinations. Before the pandemic, in 2019, 90 million foreign tourists came to discover France’s richness of natural and architectural heritage and enjoy a world-renowned art of living.
