| Over a year, about 500 m of road along the field of the field in Hamlet 2, Quy Duc Commune (Binh Chanh District) has been filled with moss rose flowers. The road is less than a meter wide, but the two sides are covered with vibrant colors, especially near noon, when the flowers are in full bloom. This area is located more than 20km from the center of Ho Chi Minh City. (Photo: VN Express) |

| Every day, the owner of the path scoops water from the field to water the flowers. From 9 to 11 o'clock, the moss ross will spread their petals to welcome the sun. (Photo: VN Express) |

| As the creator of the flower path, Ms. Huynh Thi Thu Huong (46 years old) said that she just planted those because she loves flowers. She had no idea that those flowers would become unexpectedly beautiful when blooming. "Initially, I just planted a few bushes in front of the porch for fun and the flowers just spread out to the field. When realizing that, I planted more flowers on both sides of the road to create a dreamy scene", said Huong, while pulling grasses out of the flower bushes. (Photo: VN Express) |

| The farmer was farming right next to the flower road. "From the moment this flower road came into existence, I feel more excited every day I go to the field to work. In the harvest season, the road was even more beautiful. I also asked for flower seeds to plant in my garden", Ms. Lan said. (Photo: VN Express) |
