From the era after the French occupation of Viet Nam and before the onset of the war with United States, this tourist poster represents a fleeting time when the Vietnamese were politically in charge of their own country. Perhaps this explains why the image is one of such grace and beauty, focussing on the indigenous tribes and their way of life in the mountains.
