PHNOM PENH, Feb. 14 (Xinhua) -- The Cambodian Ministry of Culture and Fine Arts and the French Center of Culture were holding a week-long photo show to highlight wedding culture, said Khmer-language newspaper the Rasmei Kampuchea on Saturday.

Altogether 400 out of 1,000 submitted photos were posted at the center to feature traditional wedding ceremonies of different nationalities.

"The show is meaningful for humanity and it allows us to understand other traditions and cultures in wedding days," Hem Chem, Cambodia Minister of Culture and Fine Arts, was quoted as saying.

Kau Borin, representative of the show, said that the photos were sent from all over the world.

The exhibition started earlier this week and is expected to conclude on Sunday.
