TPO - According to the Department of Information and Communications of Ho Chi Minh City, in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification Day (April 30, 1975 - April 30, 2025), in the coming time, the city will build 3 new book streets to develop an increasingly deep reading culture.
Three new book streets will be built in District 7, Binh Tan District and Cu Chi District. Once completed, the new Book Streets will create more reading spaces, connecting with existing book streets such as Nguyen Van Binh Book Street (District 1) and Thu Duc City Book Street to create an "ecosystem" of reading culture, contributing to making Ho Chi Minh City a typical and representative address for cultural activities, tourism and publishing activities, developing reading culture.
The new Book Streets are expected to be built by the end of 2024 and operational by April 2025.
