"The program, Colorful China, is a brand and also considered as a cultural ambassador. The performance has been presented in more than 100 countries and regions in the world to introduce Chinese culture to global audiences," said Wu Jinguang, deputy director general of Department of International Exchanges at China 's State Ethnic Affairs Commission.
As the lunar New Year festival is celebrated in both Vietnam and China, the performance is also a New Year wish from Chinese ethnic artists to Vietnamese audiences, Wu said.
Colorful China, a brilliant performance of ethnic song, dance and musical instruments, received great applause from Vietnamese audiences.
"I like the dance 'Thousand-hand Guan Yin' most. This performance is very impressive and beautiful," Thuy praised.
Meanwhile, Hoang Bich Hoa, a 32-year-old bank clerk, said she was impressed with the musical performance. "Chinese culture has many similarities with Vietnamese. I am looking forward to seeing more performance like this in Vietnam."
