Lotus flavored tea is a treasured specialty of Hanoi that has been handed down for generations, the most famous of which is the classic West Lake lotus tea.
The infusion of lotus scent into tea is a remarkable feat. The lotus pond at the West Lake area is quite well-known and everyone has a different name for this place.
Tourists call it the lotus field of West Lake Water Park while lotus tea producers call it Lagoon 7 in Nhat Tan ward. The lotus pond is adjacent to the West Lake Water Park, making it easy to find even though the dirt road leading to the pond is quite rugged.
Enjoying West Lake lotus tea has become a unique cultural activity of people living in Hanoi./.
