Phan Dinh Phung is a familiar street for young people in Hanoi every autumn. However, instead of waiting for the weather to cool down to autumn, in early August when the summer sun was still blazing, the "muses" invited each other to come here to take pictures, creating a trend that spread all over social networks.
On August 10, Hanoi entered the hottest day of the first heat wave of August, with the highest temperature of the day reaching 38 degrees. The attraction of the autumn street - Phan Dinh Phung even overcame the heat of Hanoi.

According to a flower cart owner on Hoang Dieu Street, every day he wakes up at 3-4am to buy flowers, wrap them and transport them to the selling point on Phan Dinh Phung Street, the intersection of Hoang Dieu Street. A variety of flowers are also prepared to serve the needs of tourists, from lotus, sunflowers to baby flowers...
“Customers can choose to buy flowers to take away for about 120,000 - 150,000 VND/bouquet, rent a wedding car for about 40,000 - 50,000 VND/person, or take photos freely and buy a bouquet of flowers when they return,” the wedding car owner shared.

Fanning with one hand and carrying things with the other, Le Trang (Ha Dong district, Hanoi) said that although it's not really autumn yet and the weather is still hot, the new school year is coming so Trang invited her two close friends to go out on the street to take souvenir photos.
“The cost for today’s photoshoot was about 170,000 VND. The bouquet of flowers alone was 150,000 VND, I bought it with a friend so we split it. The photoshoot rental fee was 10,000 VND/photo. We took a photo for about 10-15 minutes, which was 100,000 VND/person,” Trang shared.

Dressed up to follow the autumn muse trend, Ngoc Anh (Hanoi) was not too surprised to see Phan Dinh Phung street so crowded and bustling. Many people had to line up to take photos with the flower car.
“Although the weather in Hanoi has been very hot and humid these past few days, compared to other streets, Phan Dinh Phung Street is still quite cool because it has many trees. I checked the weather forecast and it said that it might rain continuously from tomorrow, so I took advantage of today to come and take pictures.
In my opinion, when taking photos on hot days like this, you should bring a fan, water and wet towels to both take beautiful photos and actively avoid the heat," Ngoc Anh shared.
For about a week now, Phan Dinh Phung Street has been crowded every day with a large number of visitors coming to check in and take photos. From early morning, the authorities have also been present at this super hot check-in spot to ensure security and order.
