Talking to Travellive, photographer Tran Linh said: “This is the third time I have taken photos at O Long Sa Pa tea hill. I took this photo series to serve my personal passion for photography and to share beautiful places for my photography friends to travel to O Long tea hill.”
In other places, cherry blossoms only grow among the houses in the city. However, at the O Long tea hill, cherry blossoms bloom in bright pink color, spreading out on the green tea fields winding up the mountain slopes.

The cherry blossoms here are planted along the path leading to the tea garden, on the dirt road. Amidst the serenity of the green tea trees, the cherry blossoms bloom brilliantly pink, possessing a beauty that is both a little sweet and a little cold and proud.
Unlike Japanese or Korean cherry blossoms, our country's cherry blossoms have the shape of plum trees and five-petaled flowers like apricot blossoms, so they are called cherry blossoms. The special thing about cherry blossoms is that they often bloom in clusters and are very dense. The scent is not too strong, so even though they bloom all over the street, they do not cause discomfort.
