Le Duc Tho cultural and artistic street at the heart of Quy Nhon, the capital of Binh Dinh Province, turns into a walking-only street during weekends with two open-air stages where traditional and modern art performances, such as theatrical acts, Cham dances and magic shows compete for eyeballs. The performances usually last two hours starting at 8 p.m.

Since Le Duc Tho was first closed to vehicles late last year the street has been attracting crowds of both tourists and locals. Visitors can also indulge themselves in folk games and a bite or two at the food stalls on both sides of the street.
