Saudi Arabian Embassy, embassies of Muslim countries in Vietnam celebrate Eid Al-Fitr

Addressing the event, Saudi Arabian Ambassador Mohammed Ismaeil A. Dahlwy said the festival, which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, shares similarities with Vietnam’s traditional New Year festival or Tet.

The celebration in Hanoi is a good opportunity for Saudi Arabia to introduce the images of itself and of other Arab and Muslim countries to Vietnamese friends.

In the holiday’s spirit of tolerance, the diplomat called on the countries of the world, including Arab ones, to resolve their differences by peaceful means and through dialogues and together bring prosperity and peace to the people.

The ambassadors of Algeria, Egypt, Pakistan, Indonesia, and Iran among others, took the occasion to talk about the culture and customs of their respective countries on Eid Al-Fitr.

The event also featured culinary delights of participating Arab and Muslim nations, the henna art, and circus acts.

The assets and position of Vietnamese billionaire, Pham Nhat Vuong, are constantly fluctuating compared to other billionaires, according to Forbes.

Despite this, he remains the richest man in Southeast Asia and is ranked fifth in Asia overall.

Image
This ranking is compiled by TripAdvisor based on traveler reviews over the past 12 months. Accordingly, the city voted the most by tourists is Rome (Italy). The Italian capital attracts tourists with delicious dishes such as pasta, gelato ice cream, fried artichoke flowers, and other dishes. The second place belongs to Crete (Greece). In third place is Hanoi. Photo: nymmm The charming Vietnamese capital has aged well, preserving the Old Quarter, monuments, and colonial architecture, while making room for modern developments alongside. Hanoi may have shrugged off several former names, including Thang Long, or “ascending dragon,” but it hasn’t forgotten its past, as sites such as Ho Chi Minh’s Mausoleum and Hoa Lo Prison attest. Lakes, parks, shady boulevards, and more than 600 temples and pagodas add to the appeal of this city, which is easily explored by taxi, according to TripAdvisor. This is not the first time Hanoi has been named in the list of the world’s top cuisin
