The 'little flowers' amidst the plum blossom forest of Northwest Vietnam.

The flowering season in Northwest Vietnam originates in Moc Chau - Son La, with plum blossoms blooming from the beginning of January to the end of February.

Valleys like Na Ka, Mu Nau, Phieng Canh… are popular destinations, with Na Ka known as the paradise of white plum blossoms.

The entire area is covered in a blanket of white blossoms, their delicate petals glistening in the sunlight. Houses peek out from amidst the vast orchards of white plum blossoms.

At that time, I often looked around searching for the children. Without them, the scenery felt somewhat monotonous.

During the plum blossom season, outside of school hours, the children of Na Ka dress up in their finest clothes and carry baskets of flowers to welcome tourists .

They wandered through the garden, frolicking along the paths lined with pristine white plum blossoms, like moving specks of color illuminating the entire mountain forest.

If you're still unsure, don't hesitate to ask the children; they'll show you the plum orchards with the most beautiful spots for taking photos.

The children are like friendly tourism ambassadors and a source of inspiration for photographers. Beneath the interwoven white flower arches, the green, red, and yellow colors of the children's clothing make the scene unusually vibrant.
