Hanoi’s transformation: 1990s nostalgia through the lens of Japanese photographer

Hoan Kiem District Police’s headquarters in 1995.

The photographer first visited Hanoi in February 1995. Late last month, he shared a series of photos from the late 1990s, which garnered significant public interest.

He noted that Vietnam has undergone rapid development over the past 30 years, making nostalgic scenes like these increasingly rare.
