Young people are flocking to check in at the white reed hill near Hanoi.

Bu Hill is located in Nui Be hamlet, Nam Phuong Tien commune, Chuong My district (Hanoi). It's a beautiful hill with a gentle slope, approximately 1.5 km long. Recently, Bu Hill has become a favorite destination for young people who love adventure and exploration. It's also suitable for picnics with friends or for taking romantic photos.

To get here, from Hanoi, follow National Highway 6 to Xuan Mai, then ask for directions to the Fish Market intersection (Chuong My), continue along the concrete road to Nui Be hamlet and then up the hill. The road from the hamlet to Bu Hill is mostly dirt road, with a steep section of 200 meters; going up is easy but coming down is dangerous. In return, the shimmering scenery of the reed-covered hills in the sunlight will make you forget all your fatigue as you immerse yourself in nature.

From late September to December, Bu Hill enjoys cool weather, causing the reeds along the slopes to bloom in a blanket of white, creating a wild yet romantic landscape. The previously deserted hill transforms with the newly bloomed white reeds swaying in the wind. The scene is just as romantic as the beauty of Binh Lieu (Quang Ninh).

This is a newly emerging destination, so it still retains its pristine, peaceful beauty, largely untouched by human intervention. The best time to photograph the reeds on Bu Hill is early in the morning when the sun is shining and the breeze is gentle. From afar, the hill looks like a painting with its unique shades of pink.

With its picturesque natural backdrop and romantic atmosphere amidst the vast expanse of land and sky, the reed-covered hills are becoming a popular destination for young people to visit and capture beautiful moments in the early winter morning.
