This photo set is taken by photographer Dam Van Thao (born 1996, a native of Quang Ngai, now living in Ho Chi Minh City) mainly in the central districts. The young photographer reported that there were nights when she did not sleep at all just to capture the fanciful scenery of mist and clouds in the city. (Photo: VN Express)

Fog and clouds are spreading on Nguyen Hue pedestrian street and Bach Dang wharf, District 1. “Cloudy season usually appears in highland areas such as Da Lat, Pleiku or Sa Pa. However, there is no need to travel that far, even in Saigon there is also fog and clouds in the early morning or after afternoon rains. If you wake up early, with a little luck, you can go hunting for impressive cloudy moments ”, Thao shared. (Photo: VN Express)
