Close-up of Thinh- Suy- Bi- Thai Buddha's hand fruit worth tens of millions of dong not for sale

It is not an exaggeration to say that one has to "look with red eyes" to find the Buddha's hand fruit that has been around for tens of millions of years. Because this year's weather is not favorable, the Buddha's hand yield has decreased significantly, the fruit is small and ugly, difficult to meet market demand, it is very rare to find a Buddha's hand fruit with a beautiful "sparkling" shape like last year. But it is "looking with red eyes" to find it, not that it is not there.

Buddha's hand growers in Hanoi said that due to unfavorable weather this year, Buddha's hand fruit production has decreased significantly. The fruit is small and ugly, making it difficult to meet market demand. It is rare to find Buddha's hand fruit with a beautiful "sparkling" shape like last year.

For more than ten years now, Buddha’s hand fruit has been sought after by people and placed in a prominent position on the ancestral fruit tray during full moon days, holidays, and Tet. Many people are willing to spend hundreds, even millions of dong to own a “unique” Buddha’s hand fruit during Tet.

According to those in the trade, the more fingers the fruit has, the higher the price, and sellers also divide them into different levels.

Mr. Duy, owner of the Tam An Buddha's hand garden in Dac So, Hoai Duc, Hanoi, said that the shape of the Buddha's hand fruit is "God's" and no one can influence it to create the desired fruit. The reason why the owner of this "huge" Buddha's hand garden would not sell it even if someone offered tens of millions is because it has already been ordered by a "tycoon".

Buddha's hand fruit, also known as "Buddha's hand" fruit, is huge with a diameter of up to nearly 40 cm, has 5 layers and is a Buddha's hand fruit that converges all 4 elements "Thinh - Suy - Bi - Thai" (the number of outer fingers must be an odd number, when counting the last finger falls on the word Thinh).

These beautiful, unique, and strange Buddha's hand fruits can be found in any garden, but they are very rare. In this year's context, Buddha's hand fruits like those in Duy's garden are extremely rare. Because of their rarity, these beautiful Buddha's hand fruits can be sold for tens of millions of dong.

This year, Buddha's hand fruit in Dac So had a bad harvest, but Buddha's hand fruits with unique shapes and beautiful appearance like this are extremely rare, if not to say there is only one.

The period before Tet is the main harvest period of this plant, every day many people come here to buy Buddha's hand and transport it all over the country.

In recent years, Dac So is considered the place that produces the most expensive Buddha's hand fruit in the country. The shape of the Buddha's hand fruit reminds people of the Buddha's hand.

Buddha's hand fruit has deep spiritual meaning and is often used to display the traditional Tet fruit tray.

Buddha's hand fruits with beautiful shapes, big, open fingers, and many layers are sought out by traders and many players who come to the garden to pre-order them many months before Tet.

For Asians, Buddha's hand fruit brings luck and prosperity in the new year.

Buddha's hand is a unique fruit, likened to Buddha's hand because of its strange shape with many long fingers. It is believed to bring peace, prosperity, and safety to the homeowner, and at the same time has a beautiful spiritual meaning for the ancestral altar in families.
