Today marks the 75th anniversary of the National Day (2 September). For the time being, quite ambiance is seen most corners of Da Nang due to the full practice of the ongoing citywide compulsorily social distancing restrictions. Nevertheless, every resident across the city share a great national spirit on this very special day. Vietnamese national flags are seen fluttering proudly across the city, evoking a sense of profound patriotism and pride, whilst local streets are well-decorated with large numbers of brightly –coloured banners and posters to remind every Vietnamese of the glorious historical era.
Below are some photos, captured by our reporter Xuan Son, which highlight tranquil yet peaceful settings citywide on this great day.
