Murals are breathing new life into walls of houses along the Ho Nguyen Trung Street in Hai Chau District’s Hoa Cuong Nam Ward, Da Nang. They give this street new face, and make it more beautiful.

As part of the ‘Brighten up your life’ project, the murals aim to create more beautiful streets in the city, and convey the message of a beautiful and peaceful life in the locality to locals and visitors.

The project was jointly implemented by the city-based Hoan My Hospital, the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union’s chapter in Hoa Cuong Nam Ward, and the Da Nang University of Architecture.

Let's take a look at some photos of beautiful murals which bring new life to this street, all captured by our reporters Xuan Son and Dinh Tuan.

The ‘Brighten up your life’ project features such meaningful activities as creating wall murals, repainting schools, screening free outdoor movies, and giving instructions about hand washing and teeth brushing to local pupils, as well as providing basic first aid instructions for them.
