Celebrate Nature: Wild Sunflower Day Festival at Melia Ba Vi Mountain Retreat

Wild Sunflower Day is a signature annual event held every November at the Ba Vi Mountain Retreat, a beautiful sanctuary nestled within Ba Vi National Park, just 50 km from central Hanoi. The festival celebrates the natural beauty of Ba Vi and creates meaningful connections between visitors and the region’s breathtaking landscape.

The event offers a vibrant blend of activities, from fashion showcases and hands-on craft workshops to interactive exhibitions. Food lovers can indulge in a delightful culinary experience featuring diverse street food stalls, where Spanish and Asian flavors come together in exciting and delicious ways.

Set against the stunning backdrop of Melia Ba Vi Mountain Retreat, Wild Sunflower Day promises an unforgettable weekend filled with unique activities and plenty of moments to relax and reconnect with nature.

Taking place around the middle of November, the festival immersed guests in the peaceful pine-covered hills of Ba Vi, inviting them to unwind, explore, and enjoy the festive atmosphere.

I was honored to take part in this beautiful event—an opportunity to celebrate nature, share our work, and connect with wonderful people through our natural dye workshop.
