Boat racing on Lunar New Year

  • On the 2nd day of the Lunar New Year every year, at Ca Ty River, Phan Thiet City, we organize “Boat Racing”. With 9 teams equivalent to 9 wards in the city, they will compete to win the first prizes of 300m, 500m and 1200m.
  • This is one of the annual events that people pay attention to and follow, because of the fierce competition between racing teams as well as enhancing the spirit of solidarity among rowing brothers, symbolizing resilient will the indomitable spirit of the people fishing on the high seas.

Hi @IamJoseFelixAranda .,

Not only this festival but also many other events such as: Running on sand dunes, Tet Flower Street, Tet Night Market, Running at the beginning of the new lunar year… take place throughout before and after Lunar New Year, it does not just a long vacation, but is a time when people who work far from home can take advantage of the time to visit family and celebrate New Year’s Eve together, watching fireworks shoot off at the 0:00 mark on Lunar New Year. Thank you for your feedback reply to the article.
