Vietnamese foods promoted on Japanese TV
Update: Jan 28, 2013
Vietnamese landscape and traditional dishes will take centre stage in a documentary shot by a film crew from Japan's BS12 channel.

The nine-member crew selected the central province of Quang Nam to make the film. Shooting locations include Hoi An Ancient Town's houses, temples, Chua Cau (Japanese bridge), and the vegetable planting village of Tra Que.

The 60-minute documentary will air in February and March.

BS12 is a popular Japanese television channel broadcasting tourism and travel programming, featuring many Japanese celebrities.

Quang Nam's provincial People's Committee has urged relevant agencies to promote its speciality Mi Quang (Quang noodle) more intensively to both domestic and international tourists, especially after it became one of twelve Vietnamese dishes recognised by the Asian Records.
