The visit to the temples of Hung Kings and Lac Long Quan, the legendary founders of the Vietnamese nation, is one of the activities offered during the Vietnam Summer Camp 2024. The organizers hope that this will help young overseas Vietnamese understand more deeply about their roots, thus strengthening their love for the homeland and determination to contribute to the development of Overseas Vietnamese communities abroad as well as within the homeland.
