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.

Distinctive, vibrant Bun blossom adorns Hanoi

Image
It is time for residents and visitors to save the moments with photographs during these days of late March and early April when Hanoi streets don a romantic coat of Hoa Ban (Orchid Tree flowers), Hoa Sua (Dalbergia Tonkinensis flowers), and Hoa Phong Linh (Yellow Tabebuia flowers). The Bun Flower is a lesser-known variety of flowers, though. Only three Bun trees have been found in the capital city thus far.  The Bun tree, also known as Bach hoa or Man man (Capparaceae), blooms only once a year in late March or early April. The brilliant flowers are pure white at first, then turn bright yellow in full bloom, releasing a mild sweet fragrance. The first Bun tree found in Hanoi several years ago is planted in front of the Cultural House of Dinh Thon Village, My Dinh Ward, Nam Tu Liem District, Hanoi. The tree, with a large old trunk and two broad canopies, is said to be over 300 years old. The second Bun plant in Hanoi w...
