1. Dinh Tien Hoang Street
Dinh Tien Hoang Street is not long but holds an incredibly beautiful position, situated in the heart of the capital, adjacent to the banks of Hoan Kiem Lake. This street has witnessed countless changes in the capital and the country. Dinh Tien Hoang Street boasts many beautiful memories for Hanoians. What was once an ancient and venerable street suddenly becomes much more romantic and poetic every time autumn arrives in Hanoi.
Dinh Tien Hoang Street is one of the most beautiful streets in Hanoi during autumn. Located next to Hoan Kiem Lake - a picturesque lake, the street also features the Hoa Phong Tower, a remaining relic of the Bao An Pagoda, and the Hanoi Post Office with its historic clock tower. On holidays and Tet (Lunar New Year), the street is crowded with people gathering to watch fireworks and welcome the New Year... And now, on weekends, you can leisurely stroll along this street, admiring the rippling lake and inhaling the fragrance of autumn in the air. Dinh Tien Hoang Street has now become part of the pedestrian street scene. People stroll, walk, and participate in group activities such as games, dancing, and lively singing along this street.


2. Phan Dinh Phung Street
Phan Dinh Phung Street is beautiful in every season. Phan Dinh Phung is famous for its two rows of ancient sau trees always casting cool shade on the sidewalk. Walking along this street, you can admire the lush and evenly trimmed sau trees. This is one of the most romantic streets in Hanoi, becoming even more special in every autumn.
In spring and summer, you can see the white color of fallen sau flowers along the road and the green young sau fruits on the swaying trees. In autumn and winter, the street is carpeted with golden fallen sau leaves, incredibly romantic. Phan Dinh Phung is enchanting in every autumn, creating a picturesque scene that captivates everyone's heart. You won't be surprised that during this time, many couples come here to take photos, whether it's wedding photos or everyday snapshots. Everyone wants to capture the most beautiful moments on this street, so many photo sets have been created here. All are extremely wonderful.


3. Hoàng Diệu
Hoang Dieu Street is perhaps one of the streets with the most flamboyant trees in Hanoi and also one of the few streets in the inner city with three rows of trees. The street runs along the western side of the ancient royal citadel of Thang Long, thus possessing many special features. Hoang Dieu Street is spacious, always cool under the shade of two rows of old trees, and it also bears the mark of not only the serene royal citadel of Thang Long, the majestic Doan Mon Gate, and the French architectural villas. And most notably, the place that captivates many hearts is the house at 30 Hoang Dieu - the residence of General Vo Nguyen Giap's family, where he lived and will forever live in our hearts. Hoang Dieu is gentle and beautiful beyond words.
Hoang Dieu Street is a beautiful street all year round, but perhaps the most beautiful time is in autumn. When autumn arrives, Hoang Dieu Street transforms, from green to gold. And the golden leaves falling gently on the road create a stunningly romantic scene. Hoang Dieu in autumn attracts many nature lovers who come to capture the unforgettable moments of this street.


4. Thanh Nien Street
Thanh Nien Street is renowned as the 'most romantic street in the capital amidst Hanoi's heart' because rarely does any street possess such romantic beauty. Thanh Nien Street lies between West Lake and Truc Bach Lake with rows of towering phoenix trees, lush bamboo groves, creating a uniquely romantic atmosphere.
Unlike Hoang Dieu and Phan Dinh Phung, which are steeped in history, Thanh Nien Street exudes a dreamy beauty. Over time, Thanh Nien has become a meeting point for couples who enjoy sitting and chatting, admiring the sunset by the windy lakeside. Whether with a lover, friends, or simply strolling alone in the cool autumn weather, you will surely feel your spirits uplifted and light. Thus, Thanh Nien Street is the most romantic street in Hanoi and is affectionately referred to as the 'street of love.' Seen from above, Thanh Nien Street resembles a bridge covered with greenery. Not only that, Thanh Nien Street is also famous for the West Lake shrimp cake... Come and experience it for yourself!


5. Kim Ma Street
Kim Ma Street is a bustling thoroughfare in Hanoi, where wholesale trading thrives and vehicles hustle and bustle day and night. Amidst the urban hustle and bustle, Kim Ma retains its romantic beauty, which few streets in Hanoi possess. The street becomes especially romantic and enchanting as autumn sets in.
For young Hanoians, this street is no stranger, especially for those who love photography. Like Hoang Dieu, Dinh Tien Hoang, or Phan Dinh Phung Streets, many couples choose this street to capture significant moments in their lives. It's a beautiful street with rows of ancient trees lining both sides and a median strip with neatly laid red bricks, creating a romantic ambiance for leisurely strolls. However, according to many, the street evokes the strongest emotions in winter when the trees shed their golden leaves, leaving only bare branches, creating a uniquely melancholic atmosphere for the neighborhood. And that's the highlight of Kim Ma Street.


6. Riverside Ceramic Road
The Riverside Ceramic Road was commenced in 2008 with a length of nearly 4 km. It is a large mosaic consisting of 21 sections running from An Duong Gate to Van Kiep Gate along themes that honor the artistic heritage of our forefathers through the language of various floral patterns flowing through history from Dong Son to Ly, Tran, Le, Nguyen; recreating characteristic and representative patterns on terracotta; paintings by Vietnamese and international children on the theme of Hanoi - the city for peace; contemporary paintings by Vietnamese and international artists... to celebrate the 1000th anniversary of Thang Long - Hanoi and was awarded the Guinness certificate for the 'World's Largest Ceramic Mosaic.'
This masterpiece of ceramic mosaic was created with the essence of traditional ceramic villages such as Bat Trang, Phu Lang, Chu Dau, Binh Duong, Vinh Long, Bau Truc... A breathtaking route in Hanoi, especially when Hanoi transitions into autumn. Give Riverside Ceramic Road a visit sometime.


7. Trịnh Công Sơn Street
Unlike other old streets, Trịnh Công Sơn Pedestrian Street attracts visitors with its quiet, peaceful, and romantic atmosphere. Formerly known as the Korean or Japanese Love Street because many couples used to come here. However, it has a specific name derived from a songwriter who often composed deep sentimental songs. In fact, I have seen not only couples happily holding hands watching the sunset but also ordinary people who may have been tired of the bustling and noisy life or bored with the crowds in the bustling city.
They come here, park their bikes, sit quietly listening to the gentle sound of waves from the lake, gaze into the distant horizon that is hard to find amidst the crowded streets. Everyone finds it hard to resist a street with quiet corners, albeit humble, embracing the vast West Lake nearby. There is nothing more wonderful than relaxing on Trịnh Công Sơn Street after the exhaustion of busy life.


8. Phung Hung Mural Street
When visiting Hanoi, you can't miss the Phung Hung mural street. Located on Phung Hung Street, Hoan Kiem District, Hanoi, finding this place isn't too difficult. Here, you'll enjoy artworks depicting the essence of Hanoi. The mural street portrays scenes of old Hanoi, with images of street vendors, traditional stores, and ancient alleys... It's a fantastic spot for photo opportunities and a journey into the past.
Visiting Phung Hung mural street during the autumn days, you'll relish the gentle autumn weather, immersed in the 'memory space' with the traditional culture of the thousand-year-old capital. Hanoians have the chance to experience new feelings and capture beautiful moments at this place.
During these autumn days, the entire mural street is bustling with visitors, taking photos, all wanting to preserve the memories of beloved autumn days in a neighborhood full of traditional cultural features, enduring architectures of the capital that have stood the test of time. These are silent craft streets, burdened with poetic charm, flower vendors carrying loads of beauty, elderly men selling red paper boats, grocery stores bustling with trade...


9. Nguyen Du Street
Unlike the romantic golden hues of Phan Dinh Phung Street, when passing through Nguyen Du Street, you'll sense a Hanoi steeped in pure white, blending with an atmosphere filled with the scent of milk flowers. Hanoi's autumn, with its intense beauty and the fragrant aroma of milk flowers, permeates the entire Nguyen Du neighborhood.
The milk flowers along Nguyen Du Street are planted evenly and are very large. With just a gentle breeze, the fragrance seeps into every corner of this street. Perhaps that's why Nguyen Du is considered one of the most beautiful streets in Hanoi when autumn arrives. The tall milk flower trees, planted straight and evenly, perhaps that's why Nguyen Du Street is dubbed milk flower street.
This intense beauty has intoxicated many poets and writers, incorporating it into their works as a way to preserve and depict Hanoi every time summer transitions into autumn 'Remembering Quang Trung Street, Nguyen Du Street on fragrant milk flower nights' – Remembering Hanoi.
