Rise with the sun at 4 a.m. and venture into the tranquil waters of Hoi An, where fishermen gracefully cast their nets in the golden morning light. The rhythmic elegance of their movements, set against the shimmering waters, creates a stunning interplay of motion and reflection.

Next, focus on portraiture, capturing the wisdom and resilience etched into the face of an elderly villager. Every line and expression tells a story of time and tradition. As the day progresses, we explore the lush coconut forests, where dappled sunlight filters through the swaying palms. We then document the artistry of local farmers meticulously laying out sleeping mats to dry, each vibrant thread woven into the fabric of daily life. Today’s collection of images encapsulates the essence of Hoi An’s people, traditions, and natural beauty.


Day 3: Hoi An - Hue

Begin your day amid the emerald embrace of Hoi An’s coconut forest, where soft morning light enhances the textures and tones of this natural sanctuary. Our photographic journey then leads us along the scenic coastal road to Hue, a city steeped in history and cultural depth.

As the evening unfolds, the Perfume River transforms into a luminous canvas, adorned with floating candle boats.
