Magical sight of century old apricot trees in full blossom

VOV.VN - There are few sights as magnificent as the 100-year-old apricot trees with their branches full of blossom at the village of Phuoc Dinh in Vinh Long Province during TET— a sign of hope and cheer for the New Year. 

Although the blossoms are lovely in their own right, they are just the harbingers of the fruit to follow.

The bark on the trees is almost black, with a blocky appearance, and look like alligator hide.

Bright, golden, striking apricot petals.


The circumference of this tree trunk is nearly one metre.
