Having overcome a distance of nearly 100km from Hanoi to Hung Kings Temple in Phu Tho province by bike, 600 volunteers, for the cause of youth and national pride, have created a meaningful journey.
With the desire of orienting the younger generation to the traditional humanitarian values of the nation and training them to have the determined will to overcome their own limitations, 25 Vietnam club organized a program "Red Journey to the origin - Journey of Pride". The journey took place in April 1st – 2nd.
The ceremony took place at My Dinh Stadium, attracting 600 volunteers in red clothes, red hats and checkered scarves.
The program took place over two days with many exciting activities such as arranging shape of flamingos, camping, art exchanges with localities, visiting historical relics and especially the ceremony to offer incense to Hung Kings at the Thuong Temple.
"This is a meaningful program that not only provides opportunities for young people to learn more about their national origins, but also gives them an interesting experience. No one thinks that they can ride a bike so far until everyone else finishes," said Ngoc Son, a volunteer of the program.
