Featured attractions

With 54 ethnic groups, Vietnam has amazing cultural diversity. So know that Vietnam's ethnic diversity is a very special thing that needs to be protected and preserved. The museum was founded by the famous French photographer Réhahn, who owns many famous photos. He also cooperated with National Geographic and Travellive to spread the beauty of the Vietnamese people. The most obvious is the globally famous photo of an old woman in Hoi An covering half her face with her hands.

This museum is where he told the stories of the people and things he met during his stay in Vietnam, as well as the ethnic minorities and the local elderly people in Vietnam. This Western backpacker can also be regarded as the predecessor of our Vietnamese motorcycle tour. He explored Lots of more depth.

It’s easy to lose your sense of fascination with the museum space, from the information conveyed in Vietnamese, English and French, to the costumes collected from all over Vietnam, to the photos, it’s all wonderful. Sometimes I hear familiar melodies in the documentary "The Artisan" or in songs in museums that I've heard the M'Nong girls sing in Lak, or just two or three lines they sang in Pekingese when they were young. Humming, very familiar.

Walk along the corridors, through each piece of clothing, speak Rehahn's every word through description, and immerse yourself in the museum space at any time. The more I see the more I respect this French photographer, but he has a soft spot for Vietnam, reaching into every corner and village to bring back and demonstrate the priceless value of Hoi An.
