Giant dragon mascots to stay on Nguyen Hue Street until next month

Each mascot, about 120 meters long, set a record for the size of mascots displayed on the flower street over the last 21 years.

The dragons' bodies, which are designed to coil and intertwine with each other, are at the entrance to the flower street and stand over 10 meters high, creating a visually stunning overhead canopy.

Aside from the size, the pair of dragons impress visitors as they also move their heads and roar.

After eight days of opening, the flower street was removed on Wednesday night.

However, since its opening, the pair of mascots has attracted many locals and tourists for sightseeing and taking photos, prompting the city authorities to decide to keep them in place for another three weeks.
