Rank : 8.5 (average on 2 votes)

Coordinates : 20.777466221523923, 105.79076004148762 (Open in Google Maps)

Subjects : The village of Quang Phu Cau is known for the production of red incense sticks, which are left to dry in the sun forming picturesque bouquets, sometimes extending for tens of meters. Walking through the village you can see many places that produce it; I only advise you to avoid the "tourist" ones, where the workers are replaced by "models" that are not very credible.

Recommended equipment : Wide angle, standard zoom, portrait lens and possibly tripod.

Best months : Certainly the first months of the year (January, February), but they should be visible all year round, even if the production can be greater on the occasion of the holidays.

How to get there : Quang Phu Cau is about 35 kilometers from Hanoi; you can reach it by taxi (1 hour, about 20 euros) or by bus, taking bus n.2 from the center of Hanoi and then number 91 or number 78 (about 2 hours and a half, 1.5-2 euros in total for tickets).

Visits : Most of the "genuine" producers can be visited for free and are located on the street or in large courtyards, the "tourist" ones ask for a small payment.
