Presidents Ho Chi Minh and Kim Il Sung in DPRK in 1957.

An exhibition highlighting friendship and cooperation between Vietnam and the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) opened in Hanoi on January 22.

This is part of activities to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Vietnam-DPRK diplomatic ties.

The five-day exhibition provides photos and documents related to the friendship and solidarity between the two Parties and peoples which was set up by late Presidents Ho Chi Minh and Kim Il Sung.

It also gives viewers a picture of a beautiful country with a rich culture and history in northern Asia.

Over the last 60 years, under the leadership of Presidents Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il, DPRK has made great achievements in national defence and construction. (VNA)
