Approaching Tet in Hanoi, the pace of life in Hanoi is still bustling with people busy shopping and decorating their houses to prepare for the new spring. Many tourists and people express excitement when both shopping for Tet and strolling the streets, especially immersing themselves in the large-scale, impressive spring flower space right in the center of the Capital.
This is an unprecedented large spring flower space located in the Ly Thai To flower garden area (Hanoi). Many tourists are excited to admire more than 300 peach trees of all kinds, from ancient peach trees, artistic shaped peach trees to natural peach trees.
Most of the peach trees are collected from many Northern localities, of which 85% are precious peach trees collected from the famous flower "capital" of Hanoi such as: Nhat Tan, Phu Thuong, Tu Lien... Besides, 3 pots of 5m wide kumquats and 2 pairs of water lily kumquats are also considered highlights at the Ly Thai To spring flower space.
Mr. and Mrs. Pham Thu Trang and Mr. Nguyen Thai Son took their children sightseeing and took family commemorative photos at the end of the year. They said that the whole year they were busy working, and the whole family took advantage of the last days of the year to shop for Tet and visit some places in the city.
We try to take our children to experience so that they know about their roots, appreciate traditional cultural values and the days of Tet reunion..." - Ms. Pham Thu Trang said.
David Scheibner - a German tourist - and his family came to Hanoi for Tet. Mr. David's family members are all very excited to enjoy the spring atmosphere. He said this trip left many impressions when the members all felt a vibrant, busy and spring-filled Tet atmosphere everywhere.
On this occasion, the Ly Thai To Monument area is designed with a large cluster of 2026 scripts with the theme "Spring of the new era". With a design simulating the shape of a galloping horse, this space arouses belief in the breakthrough and strong rise of the Capital and the country in the new era.
Artisans also created 4 clusters of miniatures with spring colors full of poetry inspired by the song "Hanoi 12 seasons of flowers" by musician Giang Son. The combination of flowers and paintings by painter Phong Hoang along with delicate poems created a gentle moment of silence.
Contributing to creating an impressive appearance for the spring space are the hands, experience and persistence of the flower village artisans.
Mr. Tran Tien Dung, a peach grower from Nhat Tan (Hanoi), said that he has 40 years of experience growing peach blossoms and white apricot blossoms. If you want to have beautiful peach trees to serve people on Tet, the growers must take care of and shape the branches for a whole year.
Mr. Dung hopes to have more opportunities to share with visitors about the stages of fertilization and shaping to have beautiful and durable peach trees for Tet.
Besides the impressive peach blossom exhibition area, the Ly Thai To spring flower space also has the gathering of traditional flowers such as: dahlias, marigolds, pearls... All of which create a spring flower space imbued with the traditional culture of the nation.
In the space filled with brilliant peach and kumquat colors in the heart of the Capital, people and tourists can also experience the meaningful "xin chu do" culture with wishes for peace and luck for a "new era spring".
Ms. Hoang Le Quyen (Thanh Xuan ward) said that although Tet is busy, she still tries to spend time admiring the streets of Hanoi and enjoying the airy space in the last days of the year. "I take advantage of going to admire the streets before entering the new year. Luckily, I got the word Duyen with the hope of having a year of good health and good luck for my family and everyone" - Ms. Hoang Le Quyen said.
Ms. Minh Xuan (Hoan Kiem ward) said that she was overwhelmed by the scale of this year's flower space. Not only beautiful flowers, bringing traditional activities such as asking for calligraphy in the center of Hoan Kiem Lake makes the Tet atmosphere even more intense. This is definitely the most impressive check-in point in Hanoi this spring.
