The activity of displaying stamps takes place from September 9 to 11, right on the time of many big activities and events being carried out in Hue to respond to the Autumn Festival in the framework of Hue Festival 2022, with a chain of festivals stretching throughout the year to honor and promote the specific cultural features, exploiting Hue’s strengths of beautiful landscapes, spiritual tourism, attracting tourists, and socio-economic development.

This is not only a significant cultural event but also a festival day to exchange, learn, and share experiences between the stamp collectors to improve their integration level with regional and nationwide stamp movement.
