After the hot summer days, the coolness of the autumn weather brings relaxation to both the mind and body, making life experiences more gentle. Just by wearing a light shirt, people and tourists can blend into the airy space of Hanoi streets.

Unlike the harsh cold of winter, autumn brings with it a fresh breeze, just enough to dispel the heat of summer without being too stuffy. This ideal weather makes Hanoians more excited to go out, indulge in strolls through the streets or sit and sip a cup of coffee at a sidewalk cafe.

Autumn days with gentle breezes not only decorate the daily life of the city but also awaken the sense of subtle enjoyment, from admiring beautiful scenery to enjoying the specialties of Hanoi.

Autumn in Hanoi is a picture of nature full of romance and magical transformation. Throughout the streets, the brilliant yellow color from fallen leaves creates a space that seems to come out of memory.

The milk flower, dracontomelon and chrysanthemum trees are in full bloom, spreading their distinctive fragrance to every corner. Parks such as Thong Nhat, Hoan Kiem Lake or famous streets such as Phan Dinh Phung and Thanh Nien become ideal destinations for those who want to admire the sparkling scenery of Autumn.

Not only the big streets, but also the quiet corners and peaceful gardens are also imbued with the gentle beauty of autumn. The space here seems to stand still, inviting people to slow down and feel a rare bit of peace amidst the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Autumn in Hanoi is not only about colors and scenery but also about the feeling of slowing down and immersing yourself in the peace.

3. Sweet and seductive scent of milk flower

If there is an unforgettable symbol of Hanoi Autumn, it is definitely the scent of milk flowers spreading on the streets. Just step outside on a cold, sunny day, you will immediately feel that distinctive scent. It is a strange scent, both intoxicating and evoking unpleasant feelings depending on each person's own perception.

For those who love the capital, the milk flower is not only a flower but also an irreplaceable memory; it reminds of leisurely late afternoon strolls or warm moments with friends and family.

However, there are also many people who feel that the intense presence of milk flower is a bit too much to bear, making it a "controversial" highlight in the story of Hanoi's Autumn.

This is what makes the difference, making every Autumn here both familiar and strangely unique.
