The event attracted the participation of 18 wards, communes and 14 school clusters. Each unit brought to the festival one big lantern and 100 small lanterns, which were designed meticulously and lively. Those are designed in various shapes simulating any famous legendary characters and meaningful simples, including “dragon boat”, “buffalo carrying rice”, “dolphin”, “rabbit is studying”, “red jellyfish”, “carp”, “squirrel carries a torch”, etc. Those colorful lanterns show the iron will in studying and working for the contribution to boosting the homeland more and wealthier.

The procession made a line en route from Nguyen Tat Thanh square, passing by streets of Ton Duc Thang, Thu Khoa Huan, and Tran Hung Dao to the final spot of Nguyen Du Street. Undeniably, the Phan Thiet’s mid-autumn lantern parade festival does not only bring a special day for children, it also entertains the locals and visitors to the locality on that day. Moreover, the festival has become a traditional culture of the coastal residents in every autumn time.
