Sa Dec to first celebrate The Ornamental Flower & Plant Festival 2024
Famously known as the home of ornamental flowers, the Sa Dec Ornamental Flower & Plant Festival 2024 takes place from 30th December 2023 – 5th January 2024. This is the first time that Dong Thap Province held such a seasonal perspective to another level, as it aims to boost tourism and mobilize households in the flower village area to arrange flower trellises and pots to create accents and beauty.
Lauded as one of the southern region’s most prolific flower cities, Sa Dec is home to more than 2,000 types of flowers, supplying over 12 million flowery products to the Vietnamese market each year. Thousands of people have joined the festival and are enchanted by the colorful field of signature plant species, whereas this is an ideal place to go flower shopping for the Tet Holiday.
