Vietnamese flock to streets to celebrate Christmas

In Ho Chi Minh City, starting from 6:30 p.m., people begin to converge on churches, Christian neighborhoods, and shopping centers to celebrate Christmas. The weather is about 26 degrees Celsius with light winds, making it ideal for people to go out.

The area around Pham The Hien Street in District 8, home to the largest Christian community in Ho Chi Minh City, is packed with people and vehicles, leading to congested traffic. Many parents accompany their young children, who are dressed in festive Christmas attire, to visit churches and nativity scenes and to take photographs.
