From the lens of a person who is not born and raised here but spends enough time to feel the vibes of this city, Hanoi is so beautiful, strangely beautiful expressed through its specialty in terms of food and lifestyles. However, for a daughter (a Hanoian) of this charming city, Hanoi is more than that. The beauty of the city has gorgeously developed through the century from the small green streets, falling yellow leaves, the smell of milkwood pine flowers (Alstonia Scholaris), and the smell of “cốm” in season, romantic fall to the cold winter with fragrant incense. Hanoi goes into people's hearts and turns into poems and songs.
