via Nhan Dan, 19 April 2021: Quang Ninh province commemorates the battles of Bach Dang River.
A festival opened on April 18 in the northern province of Quang Ninh to mark three significant victories of the Vietnamese people against foreign aggressors on the historic Bach Dang River.
Opening the ceremony, delegates offered incense, beat the drum, recalled the resounding victories, and enjoyed an art programme re-enacting the heroic atmosphere of the battles in the past.
It was followed by a procession which carried the statue of Tran Hung Dao, a celebrated Tran Dynasty general, from his temple through major streets in Quang Yen Town to the Yen Giang communal temple.
Bach Dang River has gone down in history with three great victories in Vietnam’s history of national construction and defence.
