Hanoi is a romantic and ancient place. There are 4 spring, summer, autumn and winter seasons and each season has its own unique flower. You can listen to the song "Hanoi 12 seasons of flowers" here. I like flowers very much and today I will introduce to you 3 beautiful flowers in Hanoi
- Lotus: The lotus is a symbol in Vietnamese culture. It symbolizes gentle beauty and nobility. The lotus flower is the symbol of the One Pillar Pagoda, Bitexco building in Ho Chi Minh City. It has a light fragrance, thin petals and a beautiful pastel pink color
Lotus flowers only bloom in the summer in Hanoi. It has many effects. In addition to beautifying and decorating the house, lotus seeds can be used to cook tea, lotus roots to cook soup and stamens to cure insomnia. Lotus is really a beautiful flower in Vietnam
- Peach blossom: Peach blossom is a characteristic of the Lunar New Year in the North. If the South is famous for yellow apricot flowers, the North and Hanoi are resplendent in pink with peach blossoms. Peach flowers are very fragrant and beautiful. It is believed that the peach blossom that blooms on New Year's Eve will bring a lot of luck
- Chrysanthemum flower: this is a typical flower of Hanoi's autumn. It is a small type of chrysanthemum and is grown a lot on the edge of Long Bien bridge. The blooming time of this flower is very short - about 1 month. Therefore it is considered one of the rare flowers in Vietnam. It has a light scent and fades quickly. Now it is autumn and hope that covid 19 will end soon for everyone can buy some flowers to enrich our soul
