The people of Hanoi frequently lose sight of how gorgeous their city is when mired in the daily grind. As one of the city's most vibrant season, autumn wonders are found throughout Hanoi. The Vietnam Times has received an album from Do Quy Quang, a young photographer who portrays autumn in Hanoi as being extraordinarily pastoral, lyrical, and beautiful.

Hanoi has left a lasting impression on people that extends from fragrant baby rice - a gift to autumn, in addition to its delectable delicacies like hot beef noodle soup.

Hanoians love to locate a quiet place in the autumn, acquire a teapot, prepare a package of fragrant baby rice, and then eat it with a warm cup of romantic tea.

If you want to get a true sense of Hanoians' communal culture, you can drink iced tea on the Old Quarter's sidewalks or hang out at cafés with your close friends.

Lisa Mai, from Berlin, Germany, told the Vietnam Times, "It's great to be able to visit Hanoi at the best season of the year. It's not too hot so my friends and I are able to visit places. The people of Hanoi are so nice and the wealth gap is much different from the South of Vietnam. People here (in Hanoi) are much more relaxed and happy. It's great to be here."
