Nguyen Van Binh book street is situated next to the southern city’s Notre Dame Cathedral and the municipal post office in District 1.
Following four years since coming into operation, the book street has rapidly become a popular destination which can serve to develop a reading culture among the city’s population
The Tet Book Street festival 2020 is co-organised by Ho Chi Minh City’s Department of Information and Communications, the State Records and Archives Department of Vietnam, and the southern city’s Journalists’ Association, and other relevant businesses.
The festival aims to develop a culture of reading whilst simultaneously creating a unique cultural space for residents and visitors to enjoy during the Lunar New Year festival.
