HA NOI — A series of documentary photos featuring the relationship between Algeria and Viet Nam since 1958 are on display in the capital until tomorrow.
With the message of "Peace – Friendship and Co-operation for Mutual Development", the collection of 32 pictures records memorable moments during visits by high-ranking leaders in the process of integration and co-operation between the two countries.
"Viet Nam and Algeria have maintained a good relationship for many years. The first photo exhibition is evidence of our long-standing friendship," said Ambassador of Algeria Cherif Chikhi.
The pictures also depict Algeria's landscape and culture.
The exhibition, which is being held at Maison des Arts, 31A Van Mieu Street, is organised by the Embassy of Algeria to celebrate the country's 57th National Day on November 1. — VNS
