HCMC – Luong Nhu Hoc Street in Cho Lon Ward, HCMC has turned into a festive hotspot as the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, drawing thousands of visitors each night.
Stretching nearly 200 meters, the street dazzles with a mix of traditional and modern lanterns. Star-shaped lanterns, carps, and jade rabbits evoke childhood memories, while colorful LED designs add a contemporary touch.
Families bring their children to enjoy the atmosphere, young people flock here for photos, and foreign tourists capture the vibrant scenes.
