One of the most highly anticipated events of the season has begun in Hanoi – the Hoa Sua or “milk flower” is here.
Tens of thousands people are flocking to city streets to see and smell the fragrant tart-sweet flower that signals the arrival of autumn.
Hoa Sua is a classic theme, written and sung about in poetry and song, and to enjoy the city streets lined with the milk flower in full bloom is truly a delight, creating the perfect romantic setting for boys and girls on a date.
