HUYỀN TRANG - VIỆT ANH |

Hanoi - On the morning of December 28, the price of green bananas skyrocketed, some bunches cost up to 500,000 VND, but many people still bought them to display during Tet.

Lunar New Year is the most important traditional holiday of the year, where cultural values ​​and customs are preserved through each generation.

Among them, the tray of five fruits on the family altar is indispensable, and banana - a familiar fruit, always plays a central role.

According to the reporter's records on the morning of December 28, at some traditional markets on Hang Luoc, Hang Be, Nghia Tan streets,... banana prices this year increased sharply compared to last year.

A bunch of green bananas for Tet worship costs from 200,000 to 350,000 VND. For beautiful bunches of bananas with an odd number of bananas, the price can be up to 500,000 VND/bunch.

A fruit vendor at Hang Be market (Hoan Kiem) shared: "This year, it is very difficult to choose a beautiful bunch of bananas because the market is scarce, especially the green bananas that are just ripe, with even, beautiful fruit shapes. However, they are still sold out because customers are willing to pay a high price to have a satisfactory bunch of bananas to display on the fruit tray."
