After witnessing the grand welcome party held at the posh new building of Miss Paris in Ginza, Tokyo, all the finalists of Miss International visited the beautiful city of bonsai, Saitama to promote the city’s rich cultural and artistic heritage.

The buzzling city of Saitama is located north of Tokyo. It is the home of the world famous bonsai village, where well-attended bonsai trees are taken care of, with some as old as 500 years.

The Miss International 2015 delegates were treated with a welcome dinner party, which was attended by businessmen and politicians of Saitama City. They were introduced one by one on the makeshift stage, to the Japanese guests and visitors.

All the beautiful ladies introduced themselves smartly. However, the delegate from Mexico, Lorena Sevilla, was on everyone’s attention! She looked breathtakingly beautiful at the event. After surviving from a major car accident that almost cost her life, who would have known she would be coming to Japan and representing her country in one of the Big4 pageants in the world.

Another delegate who was in the limelight was USA’s Lindsay Becker. She looked gorgeous as always.

Vietnam’s Pham Hong Thuy Van presented herself speaking fluent in English. This 22-year-old native of Ho Chi Minh City was the charmer of the night. Her personality is very engaging that make heads turn.

But among the mainland Asians, it was Mongolia who stole the night! Azzaya Tsogt-Ochir stands out with her natural look and soft Oriental features. She is definitely another strong delegate who can make the cut in the Miss International 2015 pageant.

The African beauties are not to be underestimated of course! Zambia’s Brandina Lubuli who was obviously suffering from jet lag, still managed to look gorgeous! On the other hand, Kenya’s Eunice Onyango attended the gala with all smiles. She carries a great personality undoubtedly.
