In recent days, workers of the Da Nang Park - Green Tree Company have been working hard to create three fresh flower gardens on the sidewalk of Bach Dang Street in order to meet the check-in demand of both locals and tourists during the upcoming 5-day break for the upcoming Reunification Day (April 30) and International Workers' Day (May 1) holiday.

This is the first time Da Nang has decorated the abovementioned locations during the summer. Many decorative items once used for floral displays and lighting decorations during previous Tet festivals are being reused to decorate the flower gardens.

In the public park south of the Dragon Bridge, opposite the Museum of Cham Sculpture, workers are building a flower bed with card bricks surrounding a check-in models ‘2024’ and ‘Danang Fantasticity’ - a colorful and symbolic of the local tourism.

Also, colorful butterfly and daisy flowers are grown, whilst a decorative lighting system for the flowers are installed.

At the campus north of the tail of the Dragon Bridge, opposite the Viet Nam Television Center in the Central - Central Highlands region VTV 8, the construction of five clusters of flowers is underway. In particular, there are a 29m-long, 2m-wide cluster along the railing of the Han River; a cluster of 6-petal pinwheels with each petal being a different flower species and colour; and three round-shaped flower beds with 3 different species and colours per bed.

The highlight of the floral displays and lighting decorations for the forthcoming holiday and the summer tourist season is the 100m-long, 15m-wide flower garden in front of the T-shaped bridge opposite 42 Bach Dang street. The garden will feature more than 8,600 flowers of all kinds such as roses, orange butterflies, colorful butterflies, periwinkles, daisies, guavas, marigolds, and red cockscombs.

Besides, many types of flowers are hung on 10 iron frames in the shape of trees. Two flower boats and 2 tall wooden boxes are reused from the previous Tet floral decoration model.

According to the Da Nang Park - Green Tree Company, the total construction cost for the aforementioned flower gardens is more than VND881 million. These gardens will be open to the public on April 28 and last until May 28.

Deputy Director of the municipal Department of Construction Le Van Tuan remarked that in addition to the abovementioned floral display and lighting decoration locations, the unit has worked with the leaders of the Mono Bogo Vietnam Co., Ltd. to decorate more flowers and decorative items around the Ly Dynasty-style dragon statue made of Bat Trang ceramic on the T-Shaped Bridge. The decoration work is expected to be completed and put into service before April 28, 2024.

​​​​​​​The municipal Department of Construction has allowed the Viglacera Tile Trading JSC’s affiliated unit with the Eurotile brand to participate in the installation art exhibition with the ‘land’ project in the form of socialisation on the sidewalk area on the east side of Bach Dang Street in front of the T-shaped bridge.

The project will feature 16 large-sized ceramic paintings arranged in a 9.55m-long and 6.22m-wide exhibition space. It was once displayed at the Ho Chi Minh City Museum of Fine Arts in January 2024. The exhibition will be held from April 28 - May 28, 2024.

The municipal Department of Construction has requested the Da Nang Park - Green Tree Company to hand over clean premises for the Viglacera Tile Trading JSC to organise the exhibition, as well as regularly check and replace damaged flowers with new ones to ensure that decorative flowers are always lush and fresh.
