Hanoi in the pomelo blossom season


VietNamNet Bridge – In March, pomelo flower baskets appear on Hanoi’s streets.


For many years, this woman has sat in the corner of Hang Khoai Street to sell offering flowers.





 Pomelo flowers are rustic but have a dominant fragrance.

 Hanoians usually buy pomelo flowers to offer to their ancestors and to boil to shampoo their hair.

 Dien is the famous pomelo growing land of Hanoi. Coming here in March, visitors will smell the sweet scent of pomelo flowers everywhere.



Every March, Hanoians who settle far from the homeland miss the scents of pomelo flowers.
