That is true, because every time there is a happy event, the red flag with a yellow star appears, dying the whole street red completely naturally and voluntarily. The red flag with a yellow star is not only a symbol of Vietnam, but more deeply, it represents patriotism and passionate love that has been planted deeply in the soil of the Vietnamese people.
To explain this passionate love, there is really no difficulty or complication. August 1945 is an extremely important time for the country and people of Vietnam. That was the time when the red flag with a yellow star became a call-up signal and a weapon for the Vietnamese people to rise up and fight against slavery in one go and two strings, to gain independence and freedom for the nation and the country.
The red-yellow flood waterfall floated on the streets of Hanoi, carrying ice and all injustice, oppression and humiliation. That bright red river flows across the country, creating a miraculous general uprising "to see the new year once" to create the figure of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam in the solemn oath of the founding ceremony at Ba Dinh Square on the occasion of the Second lunar month.
That is why Vietnamese people love the red flag with a yellow star. That is why, during these brilliant August days with golden sunshine and wind, travelers from all over the world coming to Hanoi will be overwhelmed by the brilliant beauty of hot colors.
Every place was covered with yellow starlight as Hanoi prepared preparing for the 80th anniversary of the founding of the country. For 80 years, the Vietnamese people have lived with the right to intangible independence.
The bright red and yellow color of the August star are the brightly decorated puppets in the "flower basket of the capital" - Hoan Kiem Lake. The green water of the sacred Hoan Kiem Lake not only takes the green color of the overgrown trees to restore the ancient name of Luc Thuy Lake, but also takes the clear green color of the autumn sky of August, creating the scene of "the most beautiful community waterfall".
But that was not enough, the water of Hoan Kiem Lake also took the red color of the flag hanging around the lake to remind us of the red flag with a yellow star that was bravely and quietly swam by a young man from the "Hang Street" area at night to the Turtle Tower, and when the sunlight showed, not the red color of The Huc Bridge (the first sunlight) fell on the retina of Hanoians, but the red color that flew partly in the autumn wind on the top of the tower.
Therefore, during these August days, if you have hooves around the blue lake glass, let your eyes fall on the red flags with yellow stars here. In the wind, the flag cheers, telling the story of a flag raised in the dark to bring a long-lasting brightness.
The bright color of the red flag with a yellow star also makes the dark brown tiled roof of the 36 street area beautiful. It is a bold coordination between dark, cold colors, with a strong, mossy, old, foul smell, thickly coated with time with two strong red and yellow colors.
A truly familiar beautiful scene often makes foreigners admire times like this. An ancient villa painted with Vin Vinegar or dark yellow or white, with an old red tiled roof and green window frames.
The highlight that makes the villa eye-catching is a red flag with a yellow star in the center of the facade. The contrast between the flag and the villa unexpectedly creates a complete beauty of a photo frame, like a clear glow on a distant shade.
The more you wander in Hanoi, the more you see the myriad of ways Hanoians express their love for the flag. The streets, whether long or short, are covered with 3 street-name signs or just as a level cross connecting two other streets, suddenly unified by the flag-raising ropes covering the sky above, connecting the two sides of the sidewalk.
Thousands of small flags filter the sunlight into a bright pink light, making the streets an unusual mystery. When the winds ran through the streets, the small flags transformed into arms waving at the wind, warmly welcoming the flow of people passing by.
Even small alleys that are very typical of Hanoi such as: Phat Loc, Tam Thuong, Trung Yen, Dong Xuan... are covered with yellow flags. It was right at noon, when the sunrise reached its peak, the sunlight shone straight down the surface of the earth, thousands of flag bulbs appeared, lining up, the spirit of the dragon and skyquake like the days of the heroic Hanoi people: "Hanoi is pink, bustling. Hanoi is in the upper air. Hanoi is in the upper air. The Red River cheers, Hanoi stands up".
Golden August, how beautiful is Hanoi! It was a moment for those who were unfamiliar with the land to have a new perspective on the beauty of the land that has gone through thousands of years of history. The lonely Quan Chuong Gate exists, the northern part of the Imperial Citadel still has traces of cannon bullets, but when the star-studded flag shines, the soul of Hanoi is revived.
As for those who are close to and attached to Hanoi, their souls are always filled with the color of the flag and flower. That flag is the rolling Red River, the flag that always flies on the flagpole for 365 days, the enthusiastic leader ready to give up for independence, for freedom, for the happiness of the entire nation!
