This is the 21st photo exhibition and the 20th photo book by photographer Nguyen A, recalling the 70th anniversary of the historic Dien Bien Phu Victory that “resounded across the five continents and shook the globe”.

The exhibition and 240-page photo book highlight every moment of the grand ceremony, celebrating the 70th anniversary of the Dien Bien Phu Victory and those happening simultaneously, which drew great attention not only from Vietnamese people but also international friends.

During 11 days of working in Dien Bien Province, the photographer directly attended the grand ceremony while capturing moments at various historical sites, including de Castries' command bunker, A1 Hill, Dien Bien Phu Martyrs' Cemetery, Dien Bien Phu Historical Victory Museum and the Memorial House dedicated to General Vo Nguyen Giap.

The exhibition will run until August 9.

Previously, the exhibition and launching of the photo book by photographer Nguyen A took place in Ho Chi Minh City on July 28 and is expected to be held at the Dien Bien Phu Historical Victory Museum (in Dien Bien Province) on September 2./.
