The project was started in December last year to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the US – Vietnam relations. The project, themed “Clean Environment and Green Planet,” reflects the Vietnam – US partnership and friendship which have been developed over the last 25 years, said US Ambassador to Vietnam Daniel J. Kritenbrink. It also shows both countries are committed to and can work together in sustainably protecting the environment and responding to climate change, he added.
The 100-sqm 3D mural features vivid images of endangered species of fauna and flora and will be a new cultural and arts destination in Hanoi.
