Da Nang airport welcomes foreign tourists with traditional art performances

There are 30-minute art performances on Thursday and Saturday nights with chau van, a traditional folk art of northern Vietnam which combines trance singing and dancing, Hue royal court music, Cham dances, and ao dai (traditional Vietnamese long dress) shows.

The city Department of Tourism said the shows are meant to promote the country's tourism and showcase Vietnam's traditional art forms to foreigners.
