As always, when it comes to Vietnam, we talk about the war, the economic booming, and the Communist Party. However, Vietnam has become one of the tourist hotspots in the past decade due to its friendly people, untouched natural sceneries, and many hidden charms.
Taking from these inspirations, French photographer, Rehahn, has once again made his 12-day road trip to the Northeast of Vietnam such as Sapa, Hà Giang, Đồng Văn, Cao Bằng, etc. to uncover some of these unseen beauties.
The photographer has uncovered more colors of Vietnam for his upcoming book project, which is the compilation of 56 different ethnic minorities currently living in the country. This new discovery will add more to his second volume of “Vietnam Mosaic of Contrasts” which will sure allow the world to see many hidden charms of Vietnam.
