Hung King's Birthday (Vietnamese: Giỗ Tổ Hùng Vương / 𣋼祖雄王 or Lễ hội đền Hùng / 礼会殿雄) is a day in Vietnam to commemorate the Hung King (Hung Phong) on ​​the tenth day of the third lunar month. Since 2007, Hung King's Birthday has been one of Vietnam's national holidays and one of the only two public holidays in Vietnam that is a traditional Vietnamese holiday (the other traditional holiday is the Lunar New Year). 
Hung King is said to be the eldest son of Lạc Long Quân and Âu Cơ. Luo Longjun and Ouji were a prince in the sea and a fairy in the mountains, respectively. They originally lived happily together, but Luo Longjun missed his parents and took 50 sons back to the sea, while Ouji took the other 50 sons to live in the mountains. The eldest son, Hung King, led 49 younger brothers to establish the first dynasty in Vietnam in 4,000 years, named Van Lang. Hung King taught people how to plant, weave, build houses, and raise livestock to prolong their lives. When Hung King was 100 years old, he suddenly disappeared without a trace on March 10. In order to thank him, people set this day as the Hung King Memorial Day.

If you have been on one of these before then you will know what to expect. They are great to get round the city, sight see and learn a little about history. The auto Que can be a little behind at times but it&rsquo;s not a problem. They have open top buses which we did find were quite busy at times and struggled for a seat but we ended up sitting downstairs with the aircon and the view was just as good. Tour guides on the buses are very helpful. We paid on trip and we found it is cheaper then at the desk.

The tower entrance is clearly marked and labeled as it has its own reception and elevator to the highest floor. The overall reception is very good and professional and gives you an elegant feel. If you enjoy over head views of city this sky deck gives a clear and perfect vantage point and 360 view of the city.
