Viet Nam_Tile-roofed bridges

First Day Entire Cover



Tiled-roof bridge or “thượng gia hạ kiều” (the roof above the bridge) - a rare and unique ancient architecture of Việt Nam. The bridges bend a curve like a rainbow with hundreds years old, covered with ancient tiles, reflecting itself alongside the blue water featuring an unforgettable beauty to the Việt Nam sceneries.
