Discover life in Vietnam 100 years ago

How was the daily life in Vietnam in the previous period? Have you ever wondered about this? Photographs of the daily life of the Vietnamese people under French colonial rule 100 years ago were photographed by photographer Charles Peyrin. Let's see how the life of our people 100 years ago took place.

When photographer Charles Peyrin visited Vietnam 100 years ago - In 1920, he took many photographs of the daily lives of local people under the rule of French colonialism.

These images also partly show viewers the difference between the lives of two groups of people. While the French wore pure white clothes, sitting on a rickshaw, the Vietnamese people wandered on the streets, peddlers and hurried after the markets.

Objectively speaking, the French seem unsuitable in the scenes here and look at the photos "like photoshop"
