VietNamNet Bridge – A poor Vietnam in the 90s with streets full of bicycles and passengers on the roof of buses, small thatched houses, and common people left a lasting impression on German photographer Hans-Peter Grumpe.
Hans-Peter Grumpe is a lecturer who enjoyed traveling and photography. In the summer of 1991, 1992 and 1993 he went to Vietnam.
He rented a jeep and a driver to go to the northern mountainous provinces where he met with ethnic minority people who had never seen EuropeanS.
At that time, traffic was very difficult but Grumpe was charmed by the beautiful landscape.
In the photo is a village of Thai people.
Sa Pa in 1992 had no travel guide information and not many tourists. A year later, the German photographer returned, and everything had changed.
Travelling to Hoa Binh in 1991, Hans-Peter Grumpe took photos of the Hoa Binh hydro-power plant and the life of the local people.
In Ninh Binh, he hired a boat and made a tour of Tam Coc.
The children in Huong Thuy district in Thua Thien Hue province are curious to see the foreign man.
Hans-Peter Grumpe visited Da Nang twice in 1991 and 1992. Both times, he met an official who was very good at German language.
The German photographer feels proud to visit Hoi An at the time the ancient town was quite original, without tourists.
Quy Nhon was a major naval base of the United States in the Vietnam War.
When Hans-Peter Grumpe visited Nha Trang in 1992, the city had almost no tourists and hotels.
Many places in Dak Lak still suffer from the consequences of war. The German photographer stayed in the houses of the Ede people.
