"Hanoi’s Autumn holds a lingering the fragrance of milk flowers and young green rice ”, the lyrics of "Missing Hanoi’s Autumn” written by songwriter Trinh Cong Son are often sung whenever autumn comes. Autumn in Hanoi is a relaxed and peaceful time.


Autumn brings Hanoi a touch of coolness. Between summer’s scorching days and winter’s chill, people look forward to cool autumn, the most romantic time of the year.


 


Phan Dinh Phung street covered with a carpet of yellow leaves. Autumn is when leaves change color.

 

People love seeing the streets in autumn

 

 Clouds of red terminalia catappa make the streets look romantic


It’s lovely to walk along streets covered with milk flowers 


The fragrance of milk flowers lingers everywhere, urging tourists to linger in Hanoi, too.

 




 Autumn is when young green rice is sold on every corner of Hanoi.

 

 Autumn brings gentle breezes, mild sunshine, and little rain.
