March is the prime time when Hoa Gao is in full bloom. All the old leaves fall down, leaving the tree with only flowers. The trees now appear like a burning torch with hundreds of red fires.

Hanoi sees light traffic congestion on the first working day after Tet

Image
Vehicles can easily move on usually-busy two-way streets. Compared to normal days, the traffic moving towards the capital’s gateways is heavy, although there is no signs of severe congestion. A long line of vehicles waits at a green light on Nguyen Trai street. A traffic police officer arrives early on Trieu Khuc street in order to guide the flow of traffic. The Nguyen Xien-Nguyen Trai intersection is slightly crowded, with vehicles able to move at a slow pace. Vehicles only clog up the area as cars and motorbikes wait for the light to turn green. During rush hour this morning, the majority of vehicles move at a snail’s pace on Nguyen Trai street. The same situation can be seen on Truong Chinh street. There are no traffic jams reported on Kham Thien, Ton Duc Thang, and Chua Boc streets. On the first working day of the new year, clear streets means no stress and a less tiring envi...

Experts from Yokohama City and the Japanese Institute for Global Environmental Strategy (IGES), along with officials and residents of Nam Duong Ward, Hai Chau District, participated in the waste sorting model in...
