Gathering at Tan Son Nhat Airport on the evening of 17/7, the group of 10 consumers could hardly contain their excitement as they prepared to set foot in the homeland of Acecook's founders. According to the organizers, the prize of a pair of tickets to Japan is more than just a gift worth over 135 million VND. It symbolizes the company's commitment to continuous innovation, enhancing consumer well-being through diverse experiences, encompassing products, social activities, and efforts toward a sustainable future.
After nearly six hours of flying, the group arrived in Tokyo, one of the world's leading megacities. Their first stop was the 1,400-year-old Asakusa Kannon Temple. Completed in 645, the temple preserves the unique cultural features of the Edo period (1603-1868).

In addition to historical and cultural sites, the Acecook customers also experienced the bustling Shibuya crossing and visited the statue of Hachiko, the symbol of loyalty. As lucky Acecook customers, Mr. Truong Viet Thai and Ms. Hoang Thi Kim Anh took the opportunity to take photos with the Hachiko statue to commemorate their journey.
Mr. Thai shared his reaction to winning: "I feel lucky because I'm a regular Acecook customer, so I was thrilled to receive this prize. Thank you for this program." Ms. Kim Anh also expressed her joy: "The program is wonderful and thoughtful. Thank you, Acecook, for this opportunity."
Leaving the bustling city of Tokyo, the group continued to Yokohama and Yamanashi. Besides visiting the Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum, they also explored Oshino Hakkai, a historic village, and admired the crystal-clear ponds at the foot of Mount Fuji, Japan's iconic landmark.
Mount Fuji was the most impressive destination for Ms. Do Thi Tuyet Chinh. She described the beautiful scenery, the harmony of nature and people. "It felt truly relaxing, like forgetting all the stress of daily life. I experienced a completely refreshed spirit, giving me energy to return to my busy routine," she said.

The next morning, the group traveled to the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove in Kyoto on the Shinkansen bullet train, which can reach speeds of up to 320 km/h. Describing his first trip to Japan, Mr. Luu Tuan Nghia said it was "like flying on a plane, but on a railway, and very fast."
Similarly, this was also Duong Nguyen Thanh Quang's first time in Japan. Reviewing the Shinkansen experience, he was impressed by the modernity and cleanliness, two hallmarks of Japan.
