Hot Air Balloon Festival marks the return of Hoi An Tourism

in Worldmappin3 years ago

Hello!
It's me again, Fung Yu. I wish everyone every day full of good energy and more joy in life. Today is the anniversary of the Communist Youth Union of Ho Chi Minh City. In order to respond and commemorate this meaningful day in my hometown, I have organized many entertainment activities, and also on the occasion of this festival, I want to promote the beauty and culture of the locality to international friends, in order to restore the tourism industry in the country and abroad after a long time affected by the covid epidemic. Today's festival tonight I would like to introduce you to the Balloon festival in Hoai River Square of Hoi An Ancient Town.

Previously, when the economy was still stable, tourism was on the rise, these festivals were still held annually once a year so that domestic and foreign tourists when visiting Hoi An could admire and blend into this traditional festive atmosphere. But in the last two years, when the covid pandemic hit people, it affected the tourism industry in particular and the economy in general. Cause unforeseen damage to everything, especially human health and life. Because dangerous factors affect the survival of a country, the government must issue a ban on entry for foreigners but also prohibit the organization of mass gatherings to prevent the spread of covid. And since then, the tourism industry has been like a pivot door that doesn't know when to reopen. Hoi An from an old town is always crowded with tourists from many bowls, suddenly splashing without a shadow of tourists. A few tourists left behind for some reason had to stay to wait for the day to be back. Up to now, Hoi An my hometown has been full of pandemics for approximately 2 years, local people expect each day to open. Because of the impact of the distances, the shops, bars, restaurants, hotels closed silently, the economy deteriorated markedly. Today, when I heard that Hoi An held the balloon festival on the day of the union to stimulate tourism and signal tourism was and is recovering, a strong person like me also broke and my face water fell. I am glad that the life of my hometown people will return to a new normal, I am glad that the government has done its best to bring the country back to life.

The balloon was set upright in the middle of Hoai River Square. Standing on the banks of this river, we can admire its full scale. The brightly colored balloons from large to small are arranged to look at each other. Today's sunshine is beautiful, the sky is clear and blue, the clouds are floating and embellishing the bright part of the balloon. In the center, the largest balloon is suspended in mid-air as an eye-catching highlight. The brightly colored balloons reflected in the Hoai River create a perfect picture. The festival attracts the tastes of locals and visitors from many places. Everyone wants to keep photos of the balloons in order to save the important milestone after this covid pandemic.
Before the festival. The organizers are preparing and celebrating everything in the most complete way for the festival to take place in full. Everyone was drenched in sweat from the heat, but their faces were always bright. The joy, the happiness of seeing the old town come back to life makes them forget the sun, the heat, the tiredness they are doing. The labors of the environmental team urgently clean up, clean up the garbage to ensure that the square where the festival takes place is always clean and tidy. Seeing her suffering and efforts, people and visitors were also aware of protecting the environment, and the waste was packed and put in the trash can to avoid throwing dirty waste into the environment. I suddenly laughed happily, because I saw the synergy, the understanding, and the connection between people, this was also the most effective anti-covid drug during the pandemic. Balloon displays are arranged and divided into timelines, for the service of all. Anyone who walks at any hour has a chance to see the performance of this festival. This is a very flexible job that the organizers set out to do. I walked along the river, caught the young girls very excited, their faces were very cheerful and exciting, every boy was curious, surprised by the hugeness of the balloon. Their carefree surprise shook me because my childhood had been the same. I wish I could be like you, carefree, carefree, free from the pressures of work, life, and money.

It is true that every festival will create a taste for many people. People flocked to the Association more and more, everyone was curious how the balloon blocks worked, how to get the balloon blocks to fly. So the balloon gallery attracts a lot of people. But everyone is conscious of protecting themselves and protecting the community, so the observance of border control measures to avoid epidemics always comes first. Everyone is aware and reminded of each other, so wearing a mask and wearing a hat, a hat with a splash barrier is nearly 100% enforced by everyone. Perhaps in everyone's subconscious mind, everyone is trying to protect the community, not wanting the pandemic to take this opportunity to erupt again. The more we get home at noon, the more people will be relieved, partly due to the heat, partly due to fatigue. So people were looking for a place to rest and have lunch waiting for them to come back in the afternoon. Taking this opportunity, young men don't mind the sun, I took the opportunity to take a few pictures to send to my friends in the country and international friends to admire the beauty of my hometown. I want to wander, want to promote more beautiful images to the Hive community, so that if you have a chance to come to Vietnam, to Hoi An with people, discover the beauty, culture, customs, and cuisine of the people, my country Vietnam.

Really, Professor, it's been a long time. My hometown is this busy and crowded again. If compared to before the global outbreak, festivals and holidays like this will be very normal, because, for a tourist city like Hoi An, the organization of events like this is too often changed, but more than two years ago, it is not available, so when organizing today's balloon festival is an important milestone to stimulate tourism after many years of stagnation. So in order to integrate into the community and bring society back to its normal state, it needs great national effort and solidarity. At this moment, for me, the people of Hoi An, my hometown, and all visitors will appreciate in each of these moments, cherishing this time and cherishing the laborious sacrifice of the state and also the leader in the fight against Covid to bring the country back into the world. Then, the life and cultural beauty of Vietnam and Hoi An will once again be shared with international friends. We always welcome and welcome you to our country. I want everyone, all international friends to know Vietnam, to know my Hoi An.

Uh em. Được cái mọi người ai cũng ý thức tự bảo vệ mình. Nhưng dù sao cẩn thận vẫn hơn em.

Còn chưa kịp đi ở Đà Nẵng luôn a.mà lễ hội đông vui quá a nhỉ

Đông lắm em, đi thì trang bi khấu trang cẩn thận nha em

Life coming back to normal, nice celebration to enjoy the colors and peoples enjoying time together.

tks @joanstewart Hoi An is gradually returning, I really miss a colorful like this. Have you been to Hoi An yet?

No I have never been able to get to your side of the world, it looks very inviting and good to learn you are starting to live again.

Thank you. Where I live there are many such festivals. I'm also very happy that everything is slowly returning to normal.

Lâu lắm rồi Hội An mớ nhộn nhip như vậy anh nhỉ ?

Dạ. Đà Nẵng hôm nay cũng có khinh khí cầu, đông thất thủ luôn anh. Đừng chờ đen đỏ thôi mà mất cả 10 phút

Lâu rồi mới hòa nhập cộng đồng lại kiểu vậy em nhỉ. Nhưng cũng hạn chế chứ dịch vẫn còn nhan nhãn đó em.

I enjoyed looking at all of your colorful balloon and lantern photos.

Thank you. This festival is held where I live.

Hot air balloons seem like they are amazing! I’m hopefully going to get to try one of those this year or next!

thanks @cmplxty it was one of the great experiences, especially after such a long-time quarantine, it means even more to us. Hope you will see pictures soon

Wow lung linh quá, Đà Nẵng chuẩn bị đón những quả khinh khí cầu cầu. Nhưng chắc là sẽ không cổ điển như Hội An mà sẽ mang vẻ hiện đại hơn.

dạ chắc vậy đó anh @dodovietnam Hội An mang vẻ đẹp cổ điển còn Đn lại nhộn nhịp năng động, nhưng dù phong cách nào thì đó cũng là cơ hội để một lần nữa mang lại màu sắc cho thành phố trong giai đoạn như hiện nay

Definitely tourism is affected a lot by this calmity. But good to see things returning to normal, and knowing about such an awesome fest. Thanks for sharing.

!LUV !PIZZA

thanks, @shubhwaj I also look forward to your sharing about the experience on the balloon, hope it happens soon. This festival brings a lot of meaning to Hoi An city as well as visitors after a long difficult time. Things are getting better, hope one day you will visit this beautiful city

I used to work for tourist agencies while visiting different areas, or selling handicrafts or typical Argentinean food to all the tourists; indeed as a traveler, the pandemic pushed me to transform the lifestyle I was getting by traveling. I like to believe that beyond everything, there is always a great positive side, and that only appears if we look for it.

What traveler doesn't dream of seeing hot air balloons? I love knowing that I can find them in many different destinations! Thanks for this tour.

I completely agree with you @micaela.nomade
that beyond everything there is always a great positive side and that only comes if we look for it.
Wish you will have more wonderful experiences on your journey

Lộng lẫy quá anh, nhìn phê thật
