The picture of Vietnam's people and biodiversity is uniquely presented on Vibrant Vietnam.

According to Google Arts & Culture, the story of the Vietnamese people is associated with the resilient beauty and spirit of harmony. "Vietnam's history probably dates back about 20,000 years. Traces of human habitation were found in caves in Ba Be National Park in northeastern Vietnam. Some artifacts include: stone tools, traces of cooking activities, as well as teeth and bones of many animal species," Vibrant Vietnam informed.

Vibrant Vietnam is considered Google's next effort in the journey to honor and promote diverse natural landscapes, rich cultural heritage, and the Vietnamese ethnic communities to international visitors.

Mr. Hoang Quoc Hoa, Director of the Tourism Information Center (Vietnam National Administration of Tourism) shared: "We appreciate Google's initiatives to support the promotion of Vietnam's beauty globally through digital platforms. Google Arts & Culture is considered a digital museum that preserves and promotes the quintessence of culture, art, and tourism of humanity. And the Vibrant Vietnam project has once again affirmed the potential of culture, natural landscapes, and friendly, hospitable people of Vietnam".

At Google Arts & Culture, Google's production team always wants to be a bridge to make world culture more accessible and attractive to the public. According to a representative of Google Arts & Culture, Vibrant Vietnam is a typical example of how technology creates a bridge between cultures, bringing Vietnam's rich heritage and beautiful landscapes to a global audience.

This new initiative continues Google's long-term commitment to supporting and collaborating with accompanying the Vietnamese tourism industry to introduce wonderful landscapes, majestic natural wonders and unique indigenous cultures to international friends after the success of previous projects such as: "Google Arts and Culture: Wonders of Vietnam", "Google Adventure Vietnam", "Vietnam: Go to Love!" campaign on YouTube platform...

With the coordination of prestigious organizations such as iSEE, ASEAN Biodiversity Center, Precious Heritage Art Museum, Sherman Center for Culture and Ideas and Bat Trang Ceramic Museum, Vibrant Vietnam has brought an attractive online journey of discovery about the country and people of Vietnam.

"These initiatives are in line with the current strategic orientation of our country's tourism industry, which is to promote the application of technology in promoting and enhancing the marketing of Vietnam's tourism image and brand on digital platforms", Director of the Tourism Information Center Hoang Quoc Hoa added.
