Thanh Tiên Paper Flower Village

Traditionally, these paper flowers were respectfully placed in sacred spaces such as the Trang Ông, Trang Bà, Am cảnh, and Ông Táo altars. Every year, during the Lunar New Year, the old flowers were replaced with new ones, with the old ones being taken down, burned in a ritual known as "Tẩu." Over the years, Thanh Tien paper flowers have become a cultural symbol in the folk beliefs of the people of Hue, marking the arrival of the Lunar New Year.
