“Walking flower vases” in Hanoi
People in Hanoi pass by street vendors every day. Among those, busy bicycles with bunches of flower attract eyes the most. They look like walking flowers vases on the streets.
When urban areas gradually overwhelm the flower land under cultivation, bike vendors carry flower color from suburban to Hanoi every four seasons. You can catch those beautiful bike vendors in Phan Dinh Phung street, Yen Phu road, Thuy Khue street.... or anywhere if you're lucky.
The one above was taken on the streets of Hanoi, where so much of everyday life takes place outdoors. These lovely women were selling flowers that were probably cut fresh that day from the nearby countryside.

People in Hanoi love flowers. In each season: spring, summer, fall, winter, Hanoi has its own flower.

In the previous time, the flower seller didn’t arrange their flowers in the transport, only in the burden, but now the bike vendor has replaced, making the lives of people selling flowers less laborious

Every visitor coming to Hanoi always has a deep impression on the bike vendors which are full of flowers, bringing a romantic image of bikes running slowly along the streets and queuing a long sequence in crowded area.
