Seven months after launching, the contest’s organising board received more than 300 photos by nearly 40 photographers from around the country.

At the awards ceremony, one first, two second, three third and 10 consolation prizes were presented to the best entries.

Sixty-five of the most outstanding photos were selected to be displayed at an exhibition which officially kicked off on the same day.

The entries were divided into four main themes: the National Tourism Year 2015; historical and cultural relic sites, landscapes and traditional festivals; traditional handicrafts and trade villages; and portraits of people.

Works submitted to the contest are unpublished photos reflecting activities during the Tourism Year, the beauty of world heritage sites in Viet Nam as well as the land and people of Thanh Hoa Province.

The closing ceremony of the National Tourism Year 2015 will be held on December 26 at Lam Son square in Thanh Hoa City.

The National Tourism Year 2015, themed "Connecting World Heritages", was officially launched in April and featured a wide variety of practical events that have significantly contributed to promoting the value of world heritages in Viet Nam as well as introducing cultural traditions of Viet Nam, particularly of Thanh Hoa Province.
