The Department of Culture and Sports of Ho Chi Minh City sent a document to the People's Committee of Ho Chi Minh City regarding the project to organize cultural and sports activities at Sen Hong stage, signed by Mr. Tran The Thuan - Director of the Department of Culture and Sports of Ho Chi Minh City.
Sen Hong Stage is located in area B of 23-9 park, Pham Ngu Lao ward, district 1, Ho Chi Minh city.
This is a beautiful location, also a convenient place to organize cultural and artistic activities to serve the people and tourists.
However, over the past 4 years, Sen Hong stage has temporarily stopped operating according to the plan to renovate 23-9 Park in Ho Chi Minh City, causing this stage to seriously deteriorate.
Locals and tourists passing through this area cannot help but feel sorry because this is one of the large outdoor stages that once hosted many grand art programs.
The project to organize cultural and sports activities at Sen Hong stage will help revive this stage.
