This morning, although the weather in the Hung Temple area (Phu Tho) was light rain and cold, tens of thousands of people and tourists from all over the country still enthusiastically made a pilgrimage to the homeland to offer incense to commemorate the Hung Kings.

According to records, since early morning, crowds of people have flocked to the Hung Temple Historical Site. Authorities have set up soft fences in the Cong Quan yard to regulate and guide people moving to the temples, ensuring security, order and safety for visitors.

According to statistics from the Hung Kings' Commemoration Organizing Committee, on April 6 (the 9th day of the 3rd lunar month), nearly 20,000 visitors visited Hung Temple. Although the number of people and vehicles was large, the work of regulating and dividing traffic and arranging parking lots was flexibly implemented by the Phu Tho Provincial Police, helping to ensure traffic order and safety.

It is known that the Hung Kings' Commemoration and Cultural - Tourism Week of the Ancestral Land in 2025 will take place from March 29 to April 7, 2025 (ie from March 1 to the end of March 10 of the lunar calendar), with many rich cultural and artistic activities, attracting a large number of people and tourists to participate.
