Like every year, during the National Day, Hanoi is awash in a bright red, blending harmoniously with the golden hue of the autumn sun. Families, couples, and friends stroll along the streets, picking beautiful spots to capture their moments. It's easy to spot young women in traditional white ao dai (Vietnamese traditional long dress), holding a conical hat and smiling brightly. Alongside them are children dressed in shirts featuring the red flag with a yellow star.

Capturing moments on the National Day is also a way to express love for the homeland and country. The peaceful atmosphere of the early morning of the National Day fills the air.
