Located on Nghi Tam Street in Tay Ho District, Hanoi, the Quang Ba Flower Market is different from the usual markets because it opens only at night and sells only one item: flowers. Perhaps for tourists who come from far away, the Quang Ba flower market is a new thing, but for Hanoi residents, this flower market is such a familiar place that when people talk about a Hanoi night flower market, they talk about Quang Ba flower market. The market is usually open from 11:00 pm at night to dawn. Flowers sold at the market are mainly brought from the flower villages of Vinh Phuc, Nghi Tam, Gia Lam, Van Giang, also from Me Linh, Dong Anh or Da Lat.

The bright colours of flowers at Quang Ba market
Unlike selling food or household items, florists carefully select the freshest and most beautiful flowers, then meticulously wrap them in paper and send them to the buyer.
Coming to the Quang Ba flower night market, you will see a very different Hanoi. When the whole city is still asleep, the Quang Ba Flower Market is bustling, full of the colours. The lights from the roofs of the stores make the whole market bathe in iridescent and imaginative colours.
Every flower cart, large and small, enters and leaves the market. Laughing voices, sales proposals from buyers make it hard for non-Hanoi people to believe that this is a corner of Hanoi when night falls.
Ms. Lien, a florist here, said, "The Quang Ba Flower Night Market is open all year round. Normally, around 12:00 at night, the market starts to open, but at this time people are still scarce. It is not until 3:00 a.m that the market is busiest."
He added that in the days before the Lunar New Year - Tet, the market is open very early, around 8:00-9:00 p.m. Customers who buy flowers on this occasion are not only florists but also many people from Hanoi or those from neighbouring provinces.

Not only is it a large wholesale flower market, providing fresh flowers, but the Quang Ba Flower Market is also a beauty in Hanoi culture, where visitors discover the city's brilliant capital at night.
