On September 2, 1945, President Ho Chi Minh read the Declaration of Independence in Hanoi's Ba Đình Square, proclaiming the establishment of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and asserting the nation's sovereignty after decades of French colonial rule. This momentous event marked the culmination of the August Revolution and the end of World War II.
The National Day of Vietnam is a time of patriotism, pride, and celebration for the Vietnamese people. The day is marked by various ceremonies, parades, cultural performances, and festive events across the country. Government buildings and public spaces are often adorned with the national flag and other patriotic decorations.
One of the most significant features of the celebration is the flag-raising ceremony at Ba Đình Square in Hanoi, where Ho Chi Minh delivered the declaration in 1945. This ceremony is attended by high-ranking officials, dignitaries, and the public, and it symbolizes the spirit of independence and unity.
