Stunning beauty of 300-year-old Hoa Bun tree in Hanoi

The 30-metre-high tree is noted for its large, thick foliage which brings cool air to villagers.

The flowers consist of white and yellow petals and are widely known by their Vietnamese names as Bach Hoa and Man Man.

The tree can be seen in full bloom between March and April each year.

This species is often planted in Quang Nam, Ninh Thuan, and Thua Thien-Hue provinces, but is rarely seen in Hanoi. These flowers are most commonly found in Ha Dong and Dong Da districts of the capital.

The tree’s charming beauty creates a peaceful state of mind for onlookers to enjoy.

Visitors are able to enjoy the pleasant aroma coming from the flowers. Indeed, when they start to bloom, the pistils appear similar to noodles.

Locals snap photos of the magnificent flower as it enters the rare blossoming period.
