Specifically, there are more than 342,000 flower plants of all kinds in the parks, and green spots and 160 flower baskets on the main roads of the city; especially, there is a "Flower Park", which is arranged in a large space stretching along the Huong River and concentrated in points such as the park space along Le Loi Street, Da Vien Islet, and Thuong Bac Park, etc.

Ly Tu Trong Park will be the center of the Spring Festival space. In addition to the artistic flower carpets and the flower trains, the symbolic models of the Year of the Dragon, including the reenactment of dragon boat racing on the Huong River, the model of two dragons flanking the moon to symbolize the development of the country and the province, are combined with hundreds of blooming flowers in dragon shape bearing the meaning of bringing peace at the beginning of the new year; or, the dragon in front of the Provincial People's Committee area is created with the shape of dragon flying into the sky to represent a year of development and breakthrough.
