Accordingly, the journey of “The Road of Happiness” stretches from Le Thai To Street to Hang Khay Street, through Dinh Tien Hoang Street and ends at Dong Kinh Nghia Thuc Square. Displays, exhibitions and experiences will take place throughout the streets and sidewalks of Hoan Kiem Lake walking street.

Here are 13 activities – 13 notes of happiness:

1. Exhibition “VIETNAM HAPPINESS”: An open space where moments of Vietnamese life are told through light, color and emotion. Each photo is a beat of the Vietnamese heart – simple, kind and full of faith.

2. Digital interactive exhibition: Technology touches art lightly, opening up a multi-sensory world where viewers can “live” in the photos, “touch” the videos, and become part of the happy story.

3. “Companion Units” Area: A place where organizations, businesses and partners gather to join hands in spreading the beautiful message of a humane and prosperous Vietnam.

4. Announcer HAPPINESS: In the fresh air by the lake, not only the dialogues resound but also the scenery, sounds and emotions come rushing in. It's as if you're standing in the middle of an early morning broadcast on the streets of Hanoi, so that the audience can fully immerse themselves in the very Vietnamese atmosphere of the loudspeakers.

5. Sharing Happiness: A profound and urgent humanistic highlight within the framework of the event is the activity “Supporting Love: Sharing Happiness”. This is not just an act of donation, but a call echoing from the heart of the entire nation, towards our compatriots who are struggling to cope with natural disasters in the Central region.

Here, every contribution – be it material or spiritual – is transformed into a source of warm energy and strong hope. This activity is a meaningful affirmation: our happiness will not be complete if our fellow countrymen are still suffering.

6. Instant photo booth: Where each photo not only captures faces but also captures laughter, reunions and spontaneous moments of happiness. A memory brought back is a joy to keep.

7. Tree of Happiness: One of the most sacred places of the event. Under the tree, thousands of wishes, messages, and gratitude are hung like “seeds of happiness”. Each card is a beautiful wish for family, homeland and future.

Under the shade of the tree of happiness, the organizers gave away 80,000 souvenirs to people and tourists.

8. “Send happiness to tomorrow”: Each of us has things that are difficult to put into words. Difficulties with relatives, friends or words of love that are still unsaid. Write them down and gently put them in the mailbox "Vietnam Happiness".

The Organizing Committee will be a silent bridge, helping to remove imperfections and connect your happiness more completely.

9. Workshop “The Lens of Happiness”: Where participants can try their creativity through taking photos, filming videos, drawing or making short clips on the topic of Happy Vietnam. This is a space to explore your own limits, practice on professional equipment, and learn how to build a personal brand through images.

10. Outdoor activity "Health is happiness": With the desire to spread the meaningful message "Health is happiness" to the community, especially the young generation, the outdoor exercise area with inflatables - a completely new model of entertainment combined with physical training.

The outdoor inflatable playground encourages movement, courage and team spirit. This experience helps people deeply feel that health is the most solid foundation for a happy life.

11. Vietnam Happiness Map: A special map that records places that inspire happiness in the community. Each visitor can mark their own “happy spot”. Where they have felt love and peace. Explore Vietnam’s 34 provinces and cities to receive meaningful gifts.

12. Vietnamese costume parade “Bach hoa ped hanh”: About 800 people dressed in Vietnamese costumes from many periods, walking gently through the old town, creating a brilliant flower stream.
