A vibrant atmosphere celebrating the Lunar New Year 2026 (Year of the Horse) in Tan Phong Ward.

(laichau.gov.vn) This morning (February 8th), at Hoang Dieu Pedestrian Street, continuing the "Spring Connection - Loving Tet" program, the People's Committee of Tan Phong Ward organized a series of activities: displaying Tet decorations to welcome the Year of the Horse 2026; making banh chung (traditional Vietnamese rice cakes); displaying OCOP products; and giving gifts at the "Zero-Cost Booth"...

The leaders of Tan Phong Ward visited the exhibition spaces.

This morning, locals and tourists continued to immerse themselves in a vibrant cultural atmosphere with 13 brightly decorated stalls from various schools, showcasing STEM products and local specialties. Here, visitors also had the opportunity to learn about the tradition of requesting auspicious calligraphy at the "Vietnamese Calligraphy Art" section and visit stalls promoting typical OCOP (One Commune One Product) products of the locality.

The Hoàng Diệu pedestrian street became more vibrant than usual with a traditional rice cake wrapping activity themed "Wrapping with Love." Under the leadership of the Tân Phong Ward Youth Union, in coordination with the VNPT Lai Châu Youth Union, Vietinbank Lai Châu, and the Provincial Border Guard, 100 rice cakes were completed to be donated to poor households, disadvantaged families, and patients at the Provincial General Hospital.

These rice cakes, symbolizing love and affection, are being completed by people with loving hearts.

In particular, the appearance of the "Zero-Cost Booth" strongly spread the spirit of mutual support and compassion when 205 gift packages were given to poor households in the area. Each gift package, worth 400,000 VND, included practical necessities for Tet such as cooking oil, fish sauce, MSG, Tet jam, milk, confectionery, vermicelli, and other items such as clothes and shoes.

The poor people were happy and excited to hold the meaningful gifts in their hands.

All of this created a joyful and exciting Tet atmosphere, strengthening solidarity and preserving the beautiful traditional culture of the nation.

According to the plan, cultural exhibitions and exchanges will continue throughout today. At 8:00 PM tonight (February 8th), a festival and exchange program featuring dance groups and DJs will take place on the main stage of Hoang Dieu Pedestrian Street, promising to bring an explosive and modern musical atmosphere for young people and local residents before concluding the series of events.
