The street is 200 metres long with dozens of stalls that sell different kinds of lanterns.

The street becomes more crowded from 7 pm. Many children are brought there to buy lanterns and toys.

Lanterns are the best-sellers in the street.

Each small star-shaped lantern costs between VND20,000-30,000, while the price for a large one is from VND50,000-250,000.

Nguyen Thanh Lam, a shop owner, said people are buying lanterns earlier than last year as the Covid-19 pandemic has been brought under control.

The street often attracts people from 7-10 pm.
