Red flamboyant season in Hai Phong City
When May returns and the first summer winds bring the salty warmth of the sea, many people find themselves thinking of Hai Phong, the city of red flamboyant.
People often call Hai Phong ‘the City of Red Flamboyant’. That name is more than a pretty name, it is an imprint in the memories of many people. Each summer, the whole city seems dyed red by the flamboyant blossoms. From narrow lanes and old schoolyards to riverside streets, that bright red appears everywhere. The flowers burst like small flames against a deep blue sky.
People always remember Hanoi by its gentle autumns, Hue by its purple rainy afternoons, Da Lat by its cool mists and wild sunflowers. Hai Phong is remembered by the passionate red of the flamboyant. A red that is at once brilliant and tender, like the fire of youth and the enduring love for homeland.
Hai Phong - a city is beautiful not only by the blue sea and the ships in port, but also by the red flamboyants that have entered poetry, music, and the memories of generations.
