The Vietnam Record Book has recognized 8 new records set during the eventful nine-day Hue festival 2010.

The first record was an impressive 90-minute reenaction of “the Navy manoeuvre under the Nguyen Dynasty” with the participation of 1,200 artists and 70 fighting boats. The performance brought back the heroic memory of our ancestors. Another record was the performance of the “Voyage to Reclaim the Country’s Land” performed on the largest stage ever in front of the Flag Tower (Ky Dai).

 

The other records set were “The Breath of Water”, the first play showcased on a water stage; the biggest paper collage made by one person; a festival street showcasing the most pictures in one street; the display of a thousand kites on Trang Tien bridge; the most ways of writing the Chinese character Long (Dragon) in hand-written calligraphic letters; and the agency to hold the most traditional Hue royal festival programmes: the Hue Royal Vestige Preservation Center.
