Spanning 250 meters across a vast 4,000-square-meter area, Tuy Hoa’s 2025 Tet Flower Street is a breathtaking display of floral artistry. With 70,000 flower baskets showcasing 100 different species, the street is transformed into a vibrant and fragrant celebration of nature’s beauty.
The exhibit features six grand displays, numerous smaller setups, and two captivating entrance installations that are sure to awe visitors.
What makes this flower street unique is not just the sheer number of flowers, but also the creative use of eco-friendly materials. The street is constructed with 60 metric tons of steel, bamboo, and rattan, creating a sustainable and visually appealing foundation. And when night falls, the street truly comes alive with 20,000 meters of LED lights and over 400 spotlights, illuminating the flowers and installations in a dazzling display of color and light.

One of the most striking features of the flower street is the grand entrance on Dien Bien Phu Street, where a giant golden cobra mascot greets visitors. Standing tall at 10.8 meters, the cobra symbolizes Phu Yen’s natural treasures and is depicted guarding precious gemstones. The cobra is accompanied by replicas of the iconic Nghinh Phong Tower, further enhancing the sense of welcome and prosperity.
