Following a recent instruction from the Da Nang authorities, all pre-schools to senior high schools, along with junior colleges and universities across the city have been temporarily closed for two weeks in an attempt to prevent the possible spread of the novel coronavirus (nCoV) in the city.

During their off-school time, children often gather at public parks in order to have fun time.

Let's have a look at some beautiful photos captured by our reporter Truong Ky, depicting the joy when kids play in public parks amid the coronavirus outbreak.

Public parks are often crowded with children

Mr Pham Minh Hau said children like to run and jump, so they cannot stay at home for the 2 continous weeks, so many parents take their children to public parks.

The 29 March Park is very attractive to children
