35 photos by French photographer Réhahn are on display at an exhibition entitled “Precious Heritage” which opened at the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology on August 1st.

The photos reflect the life of Vietnamese ethnic minority groups. The highlight of the event are portraits of young people and children of the O Du and Ro Mam ethnic minority groups, who are in their traditional clothes.

The photographer believes that the most efficient way to preserve the culture of ethnic groups is to promote them outside their community, to create a sense of pride in their heritage and ancient customs.

Réhahn, having travelled over 45 countries and territories all over the world, chose Hoi An ancient city in the central province of Quang Nam to live. He has had opportunities to meet 45 out of the 54 Vietnamese ethnic minority groups.

The exhibition will run at the museum until October 1st./.
