À propos du livre
This is a land of contrasts: the perfect blend of time-honored traditions with the techno-craze of the twenty-first century, a unique mix of Communist doctrine with government-endorsed transition to a market economy, and the magnificent geographical diversity from north to south and areas inland.
Whether you are here for its stunning natural landscapes, its flavorful cuisine, its sinfully cheap shopping, or a taste of its tumultuous past, you will find Vietnam's residents to be universally welcoming, generous, and highly cultured.
À propos du créateur
Howe Sim is a prolific travel photographer whose work has taken him to every continent, all 193 UN member nations, and a total of 252 TCC countries & territories. His subjects are as eclectic as his destinations: from Rwanda’s endangered mountain gorillas, to Greenland’s monolithic icebergs, to the bizarre rituals of Benin’s annual voodoo festival. He has endured extremes from the oppressive heat of Ethiopia's Danakil Depression to the frigid conditions of Earth's northern and southern polar regions. He has traversed active conflict zones, evaded a kidnapping attempt, and even been detained by the authorities on suspicion of covert activities. Despite these incidents, this travel addict remains dedicated to capturing the beauty of the world around us. The more otherworldly his subject matter, the greater his wanderlust.
