The installations are strategically placed at Lac Long Quan flower garden in Hanoi, Thu Thiem Creative Park in Ho Chi Minh City, and the southern landscape deck area near the Dragon Bridge tail in Da Nang. Its considerable size, soothing blue hue, and rounded design make the bird a prominent urban feature, quickly becoming a favored destination for young people.

The presence of social media personalities, including young families and content creators, has also helped disseminate images of the "blue bird" across digital platforms. However, most visitors are drawn by curiosity and the desire to experience a novel public space.
A representative from the construction unit stated that the model was deployed in open public spaces to create an urban highlight and offer a gentle, positive experience for residents.
"We aim to create a space where everyone can pause, relax, take a photo, or receive a positive message to start their day", the representative shared.
