Hanoi’s sparkling moments on social distancing days

After two weeks in social distancing, citizens in Hanoi take another stay-at-home week to prevent the propagation of the pandemic.

Hanoi becomes quiet and clean during the social distancing days as local residents minimize outdoor activities and all non-essential services are ceased in accordance with the government’s order to fight against the Covid-19 pandemic.

 The streets of the capital city have never been so serene, clean and quiet.
In the leaf changing season, Dinh Tien Hoang street along Hoan Kiem lake is blanketed with fallen leaves.
