However, during this time, many people have been drying straw and rice, making travel very difficult. Photo: Thanh Quynh |

| Even on many inner-city roads in Vinh city, rice drying is also taking place. Nguyen Duy Trinh Street in Hung Dung Ward, where traffic density is quite high, has been turned into a rice drying yard for over a week now. Photo: Thanh Quynh |

| At the intersection of Nguyen Gia Thieu and Nguyen Duy Trinh, people also piled up rice into large piles, covered them with tarps and left them right on the road for many days to dry, which is very unsafe for traffic, especially at night. Photo: Thanh Quynh |
