Nguyen Hue Flower Street is crowded with visitors on opening day

HO CHI MINH CITY – ON the evening of the 27th of Tet, Nguyen Hue flower street opened, welcoming thousands of people and tourists to visit.

From 6pm, an hour before the flower street opened, a large number of people and tourists waited outside the outer fence.

The 19th year flower street with the theme of Spring of the homeland, warm love marks the unforgettable period of Ho Chi Minh City, which is gradually reviving, after spending many months as the epicenter of the epidemic in the whole country.

After more than an hour of waiting, Tran Lam Quy (6 years old) kept looking through the fence to look inside. The boy’s father said that this is the first year his son can go to flower street, so he is very excited and wants to go early.

At 8:15 p.m., after the opening ceremony, the organizers began to open the door for people to visit. To prevent Covid-19, the flower road made a barrier and only opened two entrances at the section near the fountain next to the City People’s Committee.

Guests are protected to check the certificate of vaccination, instructions to wash hands and disinfect, go through the temperature camera. People with high temperatures are directed to a separate area, waiting for a re-check. During the tour, visitors must wear a mask even when taking pictures.

The scenes in flower street are bustling with visitors. This year, the organizers only allow enough guests, when it is too crowded, they will close the gate to not gather.

The small landscape of rice fields recreating the countryside scene in the middle of the city also attracts tourists.

A little boy is carried on his shoulder by his father to easily see the flower path.

The corner of Ton Duc Thang – Nguyen Hue street is the scene About the deep forest – Green nature. The highlight is the model of “Lord of the Forest” made of gravel, 3.5 m high, 8 m long and weighing nearly 2 tons, attracting many admirers.

The group of friends of Nguyen Pham Thanh Hang (27 years old, floral shirt) enjoy taking pictures with the Lunar New Year mascot. “Our group happened to pass by here, so we went to the flower street. This year the beautiful miniatures, tiger models look very diverse and soulful”, Hang said.

Spring and Autumn (white shirt) went for a walk with friends and took souvenir photos with the flower street.

“This is my third year coming to Nguyen Hue flower street. Every time this place decorates with its own identity and beauty. I like the animal models of the year the most,” said German Belenkov (Russian nationality), while walking with his girlfriend.

Nguyen Hue Flower Street will be open to serve the needs of spring travel and enjoyment of the city’s residents and visitors until 5:00 p.m. on February 4 (ie from December 27 to the 4th of Tet).
