Late February and early March is the time when the Ban flowers bloom the most. The white Ban flowers bloom all over the mountain passes, mountain tops, or in the central streets of Dien Bien Phu city. Let's go to Dien Bien to admire the beauty of the Northwest people and the blooming Ban flowers.
Located in the Northwest of the country, Dien Bien is not only known as the land that marked the historic victory "Famous in Five Continents" but also known as the land of Ban flowers, the flower born from love, a symbol of the mountains and people of the Northwest. The 2024 Ban Flower Festival will officially take place on March 16, but all over Dien Bien, the white Ban flower season has begun to bloom. Ban flower is a white flower with purple accents, symbolizing the Northwest mountains and forests. Bauhinia flowers bloom in March. Currently, not only in the highlands, in the Muong Thanh valley mountain town, the Bauhinia flowers have also bloomed, decorating every street and corner such as: Vo Nguyen Giap, Nguyen Huu Tho, the scenic road of National Highway 279 through Na Nhan commune and Him Lam area - the gateway to Dien Bien Phu city. Each Bauhinia flower usually has 4 to 5 petals, purple-pink pistils between pure white petals, and a mild fragrance. The legend of this flower is associated with a beautiful girl named Ban, many boys were infatuated and pursued, but Ban fell in love with a poor, talented boy named Khum. Ban's family did not accept the boy, they tried their best to prevent and separate them. Unable to bear the separation, the two ran away hoping to live happily together. The boy and the girl died when their love was not yet complete. She turned into a tree with pure white flowers with a hint of purple, the people named that flower after her, Ban. Since then, in the subconscious of the Northwest people, the Ban flower symbolizes the loyalty and pure beauty of a girl. The gentle beauty of Northwest girls showing off the colors of Dien Bien's Ban flowers.
