The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities in Gaza, in partnership with the Palestinian Authority for Culture, Arts and Heritage, held an exhibition on Palestinian heritage to mark Palestinian Traditional Dress Day which is being marked tomorrow.

The exhibition includes embroidery and handicrafts produced by Palestinian mothers, which come in the form of clothing, the most important of which is the Palestinian dress, in which each Palestinian town or city has its own character and form of embroidery.

On display were Palestinian symbols and necklaces, candles, handicrafts and traditional utensils.

Scores of people flocked to the Pasha Palace Museum to take in the items being exhibited.
