“With skyscrapers and high-rise buildings lighting up the sky and the never-ending flow of traffic, I knew I would have no shortage of interesting scenes to capture here,” he wrote when posting a series of photos of Ho Chi Minh City at night on his Instagram account @harrybradleyphoto .

This tourist from the British Isle of Wight then spent a month and a half traveling to Mui Ne, Da Lat, Nha Trang, Hoi An, Ninh Binh, Ha Long Bay, Hanoi...

That 45-day trip made Harry fall in love with Vietnam so much that he had to change his Asian exploration itinerary to return to Vietnam just one month later. The second time he returned, he stayed for another 45 days.

“I wanted to come to Vietnam because I wanted to see with my own eyes the lush green nature with rice fields and beautiful long coastline of Vietnam. Along the way, I learned many more things,” Harry Bradley shared with Tuoi Tre Online .

Interested in Vietnam's diversity

Before coming to Vietnam, Harry did not know what to expect.

“Before coming to Vietnam, I traveled around Asia for two months, I realized how different everything was from life back home, so I came to Vietnam with an open mind,” he said.

“In the end, I was overwhelmed by the amount of fun things to do in Vietnam. I immediately felt welcome here and felt comfortable going out and exploring the country.”

As a photography enthusiast, Harry Bradley quickly realized that diversity was Vietnam's most impressive feature for photography.

“I really fell in love with Vietnam and spent a total of three months exploring the country, seeing some really cool places with my camera. I love the culture, the food, the kindness of the Vietnamese people, as well as the natural diversity that Vietnam has. There are so many cool places to take photos,” he said.

Harry said that Vietnam has everything from ancient buildings to jungles, mountains, rice fields, sand dunes, beaches and even extremely diverse weather conditions.

Harry Bradley started taking photos more than three years ago and now photography has become his favorite job and true passion.

Earlier this year, the 28-year-old decided to quit his job in construction to officially devote all his time to traveling and photography.

Stopping in Vietnam, Harry said that although it was difficult to choose his favorite place, Sa Pa, Mui Ne and Ninh Binh were the places that gave him the most beautiful photos.

“My top three places in Vietnam are Sa Pa, which has incredible hiking through mountains and rice terraces. Next is Mui Ne, which has sand dunes, fishing villages and stunning coastline. And third is Ninh Binh (Tam Coc) – which has the most unique mountain range I’ve ever seen. Just walking around the place is impressive,” Harry said.

The three months Harry traveled in Vietnam were also three months in which his Instagram followers got to admire nearly 300 beautiful photos of Vietnam that he took.

Looking at Harry's photos of Vietnam, many people praised his beautiful photos, others said he reminded them of beautiful memories in Vietnam. Others said they were inspired to visit Vietnam to see the beautiful scenery with their own eyes.

“So picturesque, I will definitely have to visit one day,” one person commented on Harry’s photos of the rice terraces in Sa Pa.

Harry said he hopes people who view his photos can feel the place he photographed.

“With Vietnam, I am especially happy when I look back at the photos of the mountain scenery in Sa Pa, the early morning in Hoi An and the sunset over the sand dunes in Mui Ne, they really bring me back to the moments I captured. These photos help to revive the memories so that others can experience those places too,” he said.
