Incredible monuments integrated into the landscape itself by countless hours of hard work over generations of families. Records of human persistence and determination, constantly evolving and building upon each other, like the aging rings of a tree. To see how this network of small fields, pools and watering channels stretches through valleys and over hills as far as you can see was nothing less than breathtaking.
This series shows photographs of three of the most impressive areas we had the pleasure to visit. The terraces of Sapa and Mu Cang Chai, both in the north-west of Vietnam, and the river region of Ninh Binh, south of the city Hanoi.
