As planned, the much-awaited annual flower show themed “Non song gam hoa, vui xuan thai hoa” (A prosperous and happy country—a joyful and peaceful Lunar New Year) will officially open to the public from January 27 to February 2 (the 28th day of the last month—the 5th day of the first month of the lunar calendar).
The welcome gate, featuring a couple of giant snakes with total lengths of 25 and 42 meters, and miniature scenes arranged along Flora Street, is nearly completed.
This year’s flower show will use more than 109,000 baskets of various types of flowers and friendly materials for decorations. It will be divided into three sections, including Solidarity, Transformation, and Development, depicting the historical milestones of the Vietnamese people who overcame hardships, sacrifices, and losses to gain independence, reunify the country, and transform for sustainable development.
The annual Nguyen Hue Flower Street is one of the events receiving the highest expectations from people during the Tet holidays. The event aims to highlight Vietnamese Tet culture and has been held for 22 consecutive years, attracting more than one million visitors each year.
