“Giants pt. 1”, Somewhere between A Luoi and Prao,  Thua Thien Hue Province, Vietnam

Just a stone’s throw from the Lao border, the Ho Chi Minh Road ascends continuously through a mesmerizing scenery of tropical mountains. Each time you think you’ve reached the top, the road keeps climbing. Eventually it all ends with an eerie dark tunnel that crosses under the mountaintop to the other side. There, the trees finally touch the sky.
