I took this photo with a film camera, which perfectly captured the serene and ancient beauty of a corner of Hue in July. With the slightly nostalgic, tranquil quality of film, the scenery becomes more romantic. The Perfume River appears like a smooth, deep blue silk ribbon, reflecting the gentle afternoon sky. Unlike the hustle and bustle of the city, this place is filled only with the tranquility of nature. Vast green hills stretch to the mountaintops, embracing the river and the charming little houses. The presence of a church with its striking architecture amidst the green foliage is not only a visual highlight but also evokes a story about the simple cultural and spiritual life of the local people. Nearby, pine branches and foliage frame the picture, creating the feeling of standing silently and gazing at a moment of absolute peace in the ancient capital.
