Tuyet Van, a manager at a local bar said that the number of customers was still small on the first opening day.
"I know that many local people are still worried about the pandemic while the city has not opened to foreign tourists yet," she said. "But I hope that we'll welcome more customers during the weekend and in the coming time."
