Along the street, decorations made from recycled wood, kraft paper, or sustainable felt also contribute to highlighting creativity and intimacy.
The festival atmosphere on the street not only attracts the people of the capital but also makes many foreign visitors excited.
Coming here, many tourists cannot hide their surprise, some even compare this place to a miniature "Christmas village" in the heart of Hanoi.
Shop owners are busy packing their goods while tourists admire the colorful street.
The brilliant space of sparkling lights, vintage wreaths, elaborately decorated Christmas trees and a series of eye-catching handicrafts left a deep impression on the hearts of guests from afar.
Many tourists are amazed at the way local people harmoniously combine Western Christmas culture with the hustle and bustle of Vietnamese people.
They not only strolled and looked around but also eagerly bought lovely decorative items to bring home as souvenirs.
Christmas may not be a strange occasion to them, but enjoying this festive atmosphere in Vietnam really makes many tourists excited.
So every Christmas season, Hang Ma Street leaves its mark as a "must-see" spot in the eyes of international tourists.
Peter, a tourist from Australia, shared: “I didn’t think Christmas in Vietnam would be so popular. It’s interesting to see the shops decorated brightly and people excited about the holiday.”
Besides, some tourists also wonder about the origin of the colorful decorations on Hang Ma Street.
I don't know if these items are imported or made by locals, but they have something different from the decorations in Europe, some tourists shared the same opinion.
The layout and arrangement show a lot of taste, not just randomly placed items next to each other.
“It’s great to see a small corner of Hanoi filled with Christmas atmosphere. They did a great job of bringing the real festive feeling,” said Rebecca from Canada.
