A stretch of Hung Vuong Street, Can Tho, lined with about 160 pink trumpet trees has turned into a popular destination during the flowering season.
Each March, the trees burst into bloom, creating a romantic scene that attracts photographers and tourists alike.
The trees remain green for most of the year, but shortly after Lunar New Year they shed their leaves and blossom with clusters of delicate flowers.
Native to the Americas, pink trumpet trees, also known as pink bells, produce flowers resembling cherry blossoms and are widely planted as ornamental street trees in Vietnam.
Peak visiting hours are typically between 4 pm and 6 pm, when the sunlight softens and temperatures cool, creating ideal conditions for photography.
Nguyen Thi Thanh Thao, 40, a resident of Phu Loi Ward, Can Tho, Vietnam, said she visits the street every year during the blooming season.
“The flowers are especially abundant this year, and more visitors have come to take photos,” she said.
The blooming avenue has also created opportunities for informal vendors selling food and drinks along the roadside.
With their tall trunks and broad canopies, pink trumpet trees are commonly planted in urban areas to provide shade, reduce ultraviolet exposure and help improve air quality.
The flower-lined road is located in Phu Tam Commune.
