Lunar New Year 2026 is approaching, the area around Hoan Kiem Lake becomes bustling. From early morning and especially on the last weekend of 2025, hundreds of young people took the opportunity to gather, wearing ao dai, floral dresses, and traditional costumes to take photos to welcome spring.
The atmosphere around the lake is bustling with the red color of parallel sentences, lanterns, and decorative miniatures imbued with the Tet flavor. Many groups of friends bring professional cameras, tripods, and even hire photographers to capture the most beautiful moments before temporarily leaving Hanoi to return to their hometown for Tet.
According to records, the pedestrian street area around the lake is always crowded. Young people patiently line up waiting for their turn to take photos at "hot" angles to have a Tet-style photo set. Lively laughter, mixed with continuous camera clicks, creates a vibrant early spring atmosphere.
Khanh Linh's group of friends shared that due to a busy work schedule, this is the last time of the year to take a Tet photo set with friends. "We take advantage of taking photos early so we can get home in time. Every year we want to have a beautiful spring photo set as a souvenir," Khanh Linh said.
As for Thanh Thao's group of friends, taking advantage of the free weekend, the group actively planned to make a commemorative photo set, combined with a spring trip at the beginning of the year.
According to you, arranging to take photos on weekends is not only convenient in terms of time but also creates opportunities for the whole group to stroll the streets, visit and enjoy the spring atmosphere.
Therefore, the photo set is not simply souvenir frames, but also fully records the moments of reunion and connection in the first days of the new year.
Not only groups of friends, many couples and young families also choose Hoan Kiem Lake as a check-in point to capture the moments of the end of 2025. Taking Tet photos has become a new "costume" for Hanoi youth, contributing to spreading the Tet atmosphere.
Amidst the hustle and bustle of year-end life, the brilliant spring photos by Hoan Kiem Lake are not only beautiful memories but also a way for young people to preserve emotions before the New Year transition moment.
