Copperpod flowers blooming on Son Tra Peninsula

Son Tra Peninsula in Da Nang city becomes popular during late March, early April, as photography enthusiasts and nature lovers flock to admire blooming copperpod flowers and rare brown-shanked douc langurs perched upon their canopies. The copperpod flowers, also known as yellow-flamboyant, or yellow-flame, attract the langurs to come out to forage and relax on the tree-tops, making this flower season the best time for snapping photos of the endangered creature. The blooming of copperpod flowers also signals a fast-approaching summer. VNA Photo: Văn Dũng
