HOLI Festival of Colors 2019 titled “Bring the true Indian Cultural Spirit to Hanoi” was organized by the Indian Chamber of Commerce (INCHAM) at West Lake Waterpark on April 7th.
The event drew the participation of hundreds of Vietnamese and foreign tourists.
At the event, General Secretary of INCHAM Vaibhav Saxena said that the event aims to introduce the HOLI Festival to Vietnamese and foreign visitors, and create connections between the Indian community in Vietnam and the Vietnamese people.
HOLI is known as the festival of colors because the participants throw colored powder on each other, believing that those who get more colors will get luckier.
The event is an ancient Hindu festival originating in the Indian subcontinent. It is celebrated predominantly in India and Nepal, but has also spread to other parts of Asia.
