Lantern light across the town

Writing about Hoi An's night views, Haruru recalled lantern light throughout the town. Photographs of lights along the streets and reflections beside the water also preserve the evening scenery.

A leisurely boat ride

On that occasion, she was able to enjoy the boat ride at an easy pace. The photographic record includes colourful lanterns decorating boats and reflections on the water. Along with the town's lights, time beside the water became part of the memory.

An evening she wanted to experience again

Looking back on the trip, Haruru wrote that she wanted to return. The lantern-lit views and the leisurely ride left her wanting to visit Hoi An again.
