International perspective of Hanoi 20 years ago

(11:14:37 AM 21/11/2013)

(Tinmoitruong.vn) - Vietnam entered the innovation period in 1993. After the wartime, the country began building its economy and nothing can record that change by photography.

>> Hanoi mobilizes resources to improve the city’s air quality >> Hanoi University of Science & Technology (HUST) and Siemens ink MoU to foster the next generation of digital talent >> RSB’s Annual Assembly of Delegates Meeting takes place in Hanoi, Vietnam >> Different slices of Da Nang discovered in photo contest >> “Discover Nha Trang” Magazine published by foreign men

70 international photographers traveled along Vietnam within one week to record the truest pictures of the country in this particular period. Later, the photos were published in a photo book titled “Passage to Vietnam”.

Below are some photos from this book, featuring a Hanoi in the renovation period, with special changes.
