The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism recently added Hanoi’s Pho (rice noodle soup) and traditional craft of making lotus tea in Quang An ward, Tay Ho district, to the list of national intangible cultural heritage.
When it comes to the quintessential summer flower, lotus cannot be overlooked. In the minds of many, the beauty and fragrance of Hanoi's lotus are epitomized by the elegant West Lake lotus, also known as Bach Diep lotus.
When visiting the Moc Chau national tourist site in the district of the same name in the northern province of Son La, tourists are dazzled by its magnificent and poetic natural scenery. Here, a lotus pond at Sub-Area 66, Nong Truong Town, has just opened to tourists. So quickly, this place has become a source of inspiration for photographers.
Hanoi is promoting the farming of lotus and the production of lotus products in association with tourism development given the plant's values, with a focus on craft villages making products from lotus.
