Many families have opted for "staycations" during the four-day National Day holiday. Additionally, some tourists have booked early to view fireworks along Ton Duc Thang Street (District 1).
Visitor numbers are high at Dam Sen Cultural Park (District 11). On the evening of September 2, an artistic fireworks display will take place. Nguyen Hoang My, from Luy Ban Bich in Tan Phu District, mentioned that her two kids were enjoying their time at Dam Sen. "My kids have already visited our hometown and various tourist spots over the summer, so for this holiday, staying and having fun around Ho Chi Minh City is enough," My said.
Dam Sen Cultural Park's representative noted that the park has enhanced its activities with additional performances at various locations and flexible schedules, along with suitable promotions to entertain visitors.
During the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival, Dam Sen will host a series of events called "Moonlit Feast" from September 14 to 17.
