These days, across every corner of Phu Tho Province, the vibrant red of the national flag flutters, blending with the radiant smiles of the people.

Throughout the streets of Vinh Phuc Ward and Vinh Yen Ward, colorful banners, slogans, and billboards celebrate the 80th anniversary of the August Revolution (August 19, 1945 – August 19, 2025) and National Day, September 2.

Images of President Ho Chi Minh alongside revolutionary slogans prominently displayed along the streets affirm his immense contributions to Vietnam’s revolutionary cause.

In the central areas of the province, President Ho Chi Minh’s dignified yet humble figure is featured alongside historical milestones, honoring his significant role in the struggle for national liberation and in building the country.

On the main streets of Viet Tri Ward and Hoa Binh Ward, the red of flags and flowers stretches along the thoroughfares, mingling with the bustling flow of people.

Vivid propaganda billboards around Hung Vuong University showcase the nation’s glorious 80-year journey.

Joining the festive spirit, many families have captured memorable moments against the backdrop of the red national flag and the S-shaped map of Vietnam, expressing their love for the homeland and their pride in the nation.

The Independence Day atmosphere becomes even more poetic with the presence of young women in traditional ao dai.

For the people of the Ancestral Land of Phu Tho, Independence Day is an occasion to express gratitude to their forefathers, while also sending forth their aspirations for the future, with a steadfast vow: “Where the Fatherland is, there is our heart.”
