Residents adorn Ho Chi Minh City alleys in anticipation of Lunar New Year

In the downtown areas of the city, many streets and alleys have been adorned with eye-catching Tet-themed decorations.

A few days ago, the residents in Alley No. 153 on Nguyen Thi Minh Khai Street in District 1 finished embellishing the alleyway with artificial yellow apricot and peach blossom branches, as well as a charming thatched hut.

Nguyen Thi Diep, a 73-year-old resident, expressed that the decoration not only beautifies the neighborhood, but also brings joy and nostalgia to the locals.

The Tet atmosphere permeates every corner of the alley, and everyone is excited and happy.

Thanks to the contributions of the residents, the decoration of the alley before Tet has been carried out for four consecutive years, shared Diep.

In Alley 18A on Nguyen Thi Minh Khai Street in District 1, thousands of red lanterns have been hung, creating an exceptionally brilliant scene.

These alleys attract many residents and foreign tourists in Ho Chi Minh City who come to admire the scenes and take photos.

In Alley No. 100 on Tran Hung Dao Street in District 1, the neighborhood and houses are also bustling with decoration activities.

Similarly, in Alley No. 178 on Pasteur Street in District 1, the residents have created a delightful corner with numerous Tet-themed decorations, including a pot of yellow apricot, flags, a bamboo table and chairs, and models of “banh chung” (square glutinous rice cakes).
