Ho Chi Minh City - Nguyen Hue Flower Street for the Year of the Dragon consists of three segments, with a welcome gate featuring a pair of winding dragon mascots 100 meters long, promising to impress visitors.

The flower street takes the theme of Spring of Love and Tet Reunion, and is divided into three segments with large and small landscapes including the themes of Homeland Origin, Crossing Rivers and Seas , and Growing into Integration.
This is the 21st year the flower street has been held during Tet in the center of Ho Chi Minh City.

The image of the dragon mascot returns after a 12-year cycle. At the entrance, a pair of colorful, winding mascots create a highlight for visitors to visit and have fun. Each mascot has 5 winding body segments along both sides of the flower road, more than 100 m long and a head circumference of about 2 m.
In addition to setting a record for the size of the zodiac animal that has appeared on Nguyen Hue Flower Street, this year's dragon mascot is also environmentally friendly, with more than 90% of the material being rattan, bamboo, and bamboo fan blinds.

The 50cm diameter dragon mouth holding a pearl is simulated with opaque mica, containing a lamp inside. The body is interwoven to create a beautiful and airy decorative ceiling below.
Locals and tourists walking along the dragon's body can clearly see the material of the blinds and the woven rattan. The fan-shaped blinds under the belly will move when there is wind, creating a vivid image as if the dragon is breathing, bringing a unique experience to visitors.

Stretching over 600 m, Nguyen Hue Flower Street Tet 2024 is considered to integrate cultural values into modern design language, creating an experiential space for people and tourists to welcome spring.
