10:00: Tourists linger around Hoan Kiem Lake after the Great Festival
According to records, although the 80th Anniversary of the National Day of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam has ended, many people are still staying in the Hoan Kiem Lake area. Many families spread tarps and offer lunch around the lake area.
Ms. Pham Thi Tuyet (a tourist from Gia Lai) shared that she spent several days traveling far away to Hanoi just to witness the sacred and heroic moments of the Great Festival. When the crowd was away, she and her friend chose to stay at Hoan Kiem Lake, find a small corner to rest, eat and relax in the vibrant and peaceful atmosphere.
"I have never seen Hanoi so beautiful and close. No more the bustling scene of daily life, only the laughter and the warm feeling of thousands of hearts sharing a sense of pride," said Ms. Tuyet.
For Ms. Tuyet, this trip is an unforgettable memory, not only because of watching the parade, but also because of immersing herself in the atmosphere of solidarity and patriotism in the capital.
"Maybe I will remember today's image forever. It gives me more confidence, more love for my country", Ms. Tuyet confided.

According to Mr. Binh, waiting until the last minute to witness the convoys returning is not only a matter of curiosity but also a way for people to express their affection for the armed forces: "Our people send off the convoys with fists of fireworks, with a presence full of confidence.
