The artillery site at Bach Dang wharf is still a 'hot spot' attracting visitors on the occasion of April 30th.

In late April, Bach Dang Wharf Park, Ho Chi Minh City suddenly became the center of attraction for thousands of people and tourists to visit and take photos with the artillery site at Bach Dang Wharf.

The artillery site consists of 15 large cannons, each weighing about 4 tons, placed on a red carpet stretching 90 meters along Ton Duc Thang Street, creating a majestic and sacred scene in the heart of the modern city. These are cannons of Brigade 96 (Artillery Corps) that will perform the artillery firing ceremony to celebrate the April 30th holiday.

Not only is this a part of a large-scale commemorative activity, it has also quickly become a “hot” check-in spot in Ho Chi Minh City on this occasion. Many people, especially young people, took the opportunity to wear traditional costumes such as ao dai and ao ba ba to capture memorable moments next to the artillery.

Cannons were deployed at Bach Dang wharf facing Saigon River to serve the April 30th celebration.

In addition to taking photos, people coming to Bach Dang Wharf also have the opportunity to observe military ceremonial rehearsals, including helicopters carrying flags and fighter jets performing in the sky. These images have created a heroic atmosphere, reminding people of a glorious wartime and the meaning of independence that people have today.

It is expected that on the night of April 30, the Bach Dang Wharf area will be one of the most ideal places to watch the brilliant high-altitude fireworks display, lasting 15 minutes. With a location close to the river, open and airy space and wide view, this place promises to bring a satisfying experience to the city's residents as well as tourists from all over.

The artillery site attracts people and tourists to visit and experience from morning to night.
