Vietnam: Mother and daughters at the edge of the Perfume River, near Hue. The Song Huong or Perfume River rises in an inaccessible region of the Truong Son range and descends through a series of 55 waterfalls before flowing through the heart of Hue and on to the South China Sea. It is not particularly long or large, but it is extraordinarily beautiful, an effect enhanced at Hue by the reflection of the walled citadel, pagodas, towers and temples. To this may be added the picturesque riverine traffic - women in white mollusc hats scull tiny, single-oared vessels from bank to bank.
