Under the stamp is the image of Khue Van Cac (The Pavillion of Constellation of Literature) - the symbol of Hanoi which hosts the second DPRK-USA Summit.

With its meaningful language, the small stamp helps deliver the message of “Vietnam - A safe and friendly destination” and “Hanoi – City for Peace” to international friends.

It also confirms the role of Vietnam as a United Nations member country and a responsible and reliable partner of the international community in maintaining peace, stability and development.

The stamp set was designed by artists Nguyen Du and To Minh Trang of Vietnam Post.
