Hanoi – Old School

These two women examplify a scene I saw over and over again – people doing manual labor in Vietnam. Notice the woman on the right is pulling a cart. Notice the woman on the left is carrying a load on her shoulder. Notice the hats. Notice the dress. This was a very common scene the further one got away from the center of the urban area. This was in the center of Hanoi and it wasn’t an uncommon scene there at all.
