According to Hoan Kiem Ward People's Committee, the adjustment aims to create a lively atmosphere to celebrate the anniversary of the Liberation of the South, national reunification (April 30) and International Labor Day (May 1), and at the same time meet the entertainment needs of people and tourists during the long holiday.
Accordingly, the pedestrian street space in Hoan Kiem Lake area and surrounding areas will operate continuously from 7:00 AM on April 30 to 24:00 AM on May 3.
