On the occasion of April 30 - 1.5 this year, the campaign "Beloved Vietnam - Love Vietnam through each trip" initiated is creating a strong wave of emotion, from North to South, each place is a destination to raise pride.
It is no coincidence that Fansipan (Sa Pa) - the top of the sky in the Northwest, where the national flagpole touches the clouds and Ba Den mountain (Tay Ninh) - the sacred "roof of the Southern House" are the two earliest boot destinations for the "Beloved Vietnam" campaign.
At Fansipan, the holiday season 30.4 - 1.5 was opened with the sacred flag ceremony in the middle of the sea of clouds. The journey to the highest peak in Vietnam this year is not only conquering nature, but also an opportunity to stand, raise his head, and feel completely about national love.
Standing in front of the national flag in the majestic scenery of Fansipan peak in these April days is an unforgettable and proud experience for me, Minh Quan, 21 years old from Hanoi, shared.
In Ba Den Mountain - Tay Ninh, the Monday morning flag ceremony is held regularly from the beginning of April and will last during the holiday. Thousands of tourists and tourist staff wearing a red flag with a yellow star towards the national flag fluttering on the top of the mountain at the foot of the Buddha statue of Tay Da Son, making a very touching moment.
"Looking at the young people wearing a red and yellow flag, singing the national anthem in the middle of the place once marked the stories of the courage, the blood sacrifices of the heroic martyrs made me feel extremely touched" - Mr. Nguyen Van La, 74, the veteran from Binh Phuoc said.
In addition to the solemn rituals where the national flag flies between the blue sky and the echoing national anthem, the "Beloved Vietnam" campaign also brings images of red and yellow star flags and Vietnam map shaped by tourists and employees of the yellow -yellow flag destination.
See those images, many tourists cannot help but rise to national pride. Ms. Nguyen Thanh Tam, a tourist from Hanoi to Fansipan, was not touched: "I have never seen patriotism and national pride so hard! My country is very strange, just see where the red and yellow star flag is where the proud love spirit is over there, feel more love than the country, my compatriots, see history as if reviving in front of the eyes."
Not only stopping at rituals or symbolic activities, the " Beloved Vietnam" campaign also delves into the way today's generation experiences old memories in close and vivid forms, from cuisine, costumes, to space to recreate history and culture.
At Sun World Fansipan Legend, visitors can visit the brilliant clouds with thousands of red and yellow star flags, where ethnic groups and tourists can experience traditional villages and folk games such as tug of war, jump stall, throw in the bustling empty, filled with solidarity.
On the occasion of April 30 - 1.5, visitors to Sun World Ha Long will discover the "liberation booth", bringing the spirit of the old marketing markets. There, visitors can come across the image of Phuong Hoang car, old Cassette radio, ice cream glass cabinet, wooden tables and chairs, and even rustic dishes such as roasted peanuts, candy tugs ...
Not just a display space, but this is also a place where the old memory can touch, listen, taste and tell. Older people find a part of childhood, and young people are both curious and excited when they are "touched" into the items that used to be a symbol of a time.
At each destination, "Beloved Vietnam" always chooses different ways to connect people today with the slices of the past. This is not a campaign calling for patriotism with the slogan, but the emotional journey of each tourist through each trip.
The campaign desires to create spaces and moments - right enough, beautiful enough, close enough - so that young people today can tell their own love in their own way.
