In Hanoi, the streets are awash in red, with national flags, flowers, and banners commemorating the 79th anniversary of National Day (September 2, 1945 - September 2, 2024). 

Workers have been diligently installing posters, banners, and historical images in front of the Hanoi People's Committee building, adding a festive touch to the city's landscape.

At the intersection of Dinh Tien Hoang and Hang Khay streets, the decorations are particularly striking, drawing the attention of passersby.

The National Convention Center also boasts a vibrant scene, with the surroundings beautifully adorned to mark the occasion.

An exhibition titled "Proudly Vietnamese" is being held at the Trang Tien Exhibition House, celebrating the two major national holidays and attracting a steady stream of visitors. 

Trang Tien Street itself is alive with the colors of flags and flowers, while residents of Nguyen Thiep Street have taken the initiative to decorate their small alley with national and Party flags.

Elsewhere in the capital, Nguyen Viet Xuan Street and many residential areas in Dong Da and Thanh Xuan districts are similarly adorned with flags and flowers, creating a festive atmosphere that permeates the city.

In Ho Chi Minh City, a large screen prominently displays an iconic image of President Ho Chi Minh reading the Declaration of Independence, marking the establishment of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam. This powerful display is situated at the intersection of Nguyen Van Troi, Hoang Van Thu, and Phan Dinh Giot streets in Tan Binh District.

On Hoang Van Thu Street, a local house has freshly painted its shutters with the national flag, reflecting the residents' deep patriotism and national pride as they prepare for National Day.

Workers are also busily decorating Ben Bach Dang Park (District 1) with flowers.

A large flag has been erected, adding to the celebratory atmosphere.

Across Ho Chi Minh City, particularly in Binh Thanh District, streets are lined with red flags adorned with yellow stars. 

Many residential areas have also joined in, simultaneously hanging the national flag in a collective show of pride and anticipation for National Day.
