Hanoi not only has one, but two leaf changing seasons: one in spring and one in autumn. Every year from March to mid-April, a variety of typical trees in Hanoi like xa cu (mahogany), sau (Indochina Dragonplum) start to change their leaves, the capital city puts on a colourful charming coat. This is also the photography time for many Hanoians. Driving along the streets where these trees are growing abundantly, you are likely to spot young women, in their best outfits or ao dai (Vietnamese traditional dress), posing in front of the cameras to capture one of the most special and beautiful moments of the city that last just in around one month. Some of the streets that are attracting the most people coming for photos are Phan Dinh Phung, Kim Ma, and particularly, those around Hoan Kiem Lake (Sword Lake). VNA Photo: Khánh Hoà
