The road back to Xuan Vien village was warm with the Mid-Autumn Festival

Xuan Vien village (Dien Thang commune - Dien Chau) has 19 self-governing groups. Through hamlet meetings, the most recent content that was brought up was "Organizing the Mid-Autumn Festival for children on the night of the 15th day of the 8th lunar month with the hope that the smiles of our village's children will be bright, and furthermore, to promote the learning movement of Xuan Vien".

From that small “resolution”, Xuan Vien village took action. Starting with the elders. Cutting bamboo, making the back and weaving the base for the lantern. Mr. Dang Xuan Vien (86 years old) wiped away a few lines of sweat and said, “Yes! My child! Making this for your children and grandchildren, and on the full moon day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, I approve. In the past, my family only made lanterns but could not see any, so we had to give them to the guardian.”
