Along with the warm atmosphere, together in the family meal, everyone is eagerly waiting to be accompanied by the sound of the dance performed by their own local people. On these days, most of the communes and towns in Yen Thuy district organize cultural activities, arts and sports to celebrate the National Day of the country.
