EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this 19th century photograph of the Island of Kebao, Ke-bao Port Wallut, in French Indochina, now known as Vietnam. The image transports us to an era of simple beauty and cultural richness, as we witness the tranquil scene of a traditional Vietnamese riverbank. The Island of Kebao, located in the Mekong Delta, is surrounded by the serene waters of the lake and river, creating a picturesque setting for the bustling port activity. The port of Wallut, with its impressive wall and fortifications, served as a crucial transportation hub during the French colonial period. In the foreground, a rowboat glides effortlessly along the water, its occupants likely on their way to the island or the mainland. The seashore is dotted with small, traditional vessels, while the port teems with activity as people go about their daily tasks. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, with its early 20th century French colonial influence evident in the architecture of the port walls and buildings. The traditional Vietnamese way of life is also on full display, from the clothing of the people to the watercraft they use for transportation. This vintage image offers a unique glimpse into the history and heritage of Vietnam, showcasing the country's diverse culture and its connection to the water. Whether you're an avid history buff, a travel enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the past, this photograph of the Island of Kebao is sure to captivate and inspire.
