The Beauty of Purple Water Lilies in Yen Stream

Yen stream is part of the Huong Son tourist area complex of Huong Son commune, My Duc district, outside Hanoi, about 70km from the city center. With a length of about 4km, this stream is also known as Yen Vi because of its soft, winding shape like the tail of a spreading swiftlet.
