Next we experience the vibrant soy sauce makers’ village near Hanoi, photographing the colorful, authentic process preserved through generations. Then, our photography group visits the traditional bamboo fishing village in Hung Yen province to shoot the timeless art of fishing with bamboo baskets, crafted by 80-year-old artisan Mr. Luong Son Bac, whose intricate “Đó” baskets, smoked to protect against insects, embody Vietnam’s cultural heritage.

Begin Day 3 at 5 AM, capturing Hanoi’s iconic ceramic road adorned with vibrant flower murals, perfect for early morning light. After a delicious breakfast at your 5-star hotel, fly from Hanoi’s Noi Bai Airport to Hue, then settle into a 5-star hotel in the charming ancient city of Hue.
