Hi all Hivers, How are you today?
Only 1 week left until Christmas. How is your Christmas this year? Have you decorated a lot of pretty things for your house such as a pine tree, Santa Claus or reindeer? In Hanoi, people often go to Hang Ma street to be able to buy Christmas decorations for their house. At this time, the whole Hang Ma street has a brilliant red color. Let's explore the colors of Christmas in Hang Ma with this article
Hang Ma is one of 36 old streets in Hanoi that has been formed over hundreds of years. Although the street is short, it is a busy trading place of many shops. Shop owners often sell decorations for special occasions of the year such as: Tet, Christmas, Mid-Autumn Festival, 23rd day of the lunar calendar (Mr Cong Mr Tao ascended to heaven). Hanoians often come here to buy pine trees and colorful lights to decorate their houses.
The street is always crowded and bustling with people passing by. The centuries-old tradition of wholesale here makes Hang Ma a place that anyone will come to shop or soak up the festive atmosphere.

I went to Hang Ma today and took pictures of Christmas colors. It's the red of the Santa Claus costume, the green of the pine tree, the yellow of the twinkling lights. Even though I go during the day, the street is still crowded with people, which makes me feel very happy
If you have the opportunity to visit Hanoi, you can visit this Hang Ma street! It will definitely surprise you because of the fun and busy atmosphere here
And a note when taking photos: ask the shop owner for permission first, and if you want to buy, ask for the price first and don't forget to bargain.
When spring and New Year come, Hang Ma will sell peach blossoms, a typical flower of the North. I'm looking forward to Tet and will come back to this street to take pictures of peach blossoms
Thank you for reading this article. Wishing you a safe and happy Christmas!
