The flower street is located on the eastern side of the Rong (dragon) Bridge by Tran Hung Dao Street in Son Tra District.

DHC designs the flower street as a miniature Vietnam with Hoang Sa (Paracel) and Truong Sa (Spratly) archipelagos, and Phu Quoc and Con Dao islands.

According to the organizer, the DHC-funded project is aimed at raising viewers’ awareness of Vietnam’s sovereignty over waters and islands in the East Sea.

The huge flower-made map of the country covers the entire area of the park east of the Rong Bridge and stretches to the Marina pier for DHC’s cruise ships.

Another highlight of the Danang flower street is a display of hundreds of peach blossoms brought to the central city from the renowned peach blossom farms in Nhat Tan of Hanoi.

Apart from the flower street, the lighting system along Tran Hung Dao Street is designed as “ca chep hoa rong” (fish turns into dragon) to reflect the strong growth and development of the city.
