During his cross-country trip from late March to mid-April, its author, Oliver Astrologo, captured and collaged many recordings of Viet Nam’s tourist attractions, including Ha Long Bay in Quang Ninh Province,Hoi An Ancient Town in Quang Nam Province, and Trang An in Ninh Binh Province, all of which have earned UNESCO recognition as world heritage sites.

The clip also highlighted gorgeous scenery in several places in the Mekong Delta, including heavenly beaches on Phu Quoc Island, located off Kien Giang Province.

Astrologo, 35, focused his lens on the rustic everyday life of the people he bumped into during the trip, as well as diverse cultural and art activities in different locales.
