For Vietnam, the sea has become an integral part of its history, culture, and national spirit. This book offers readers a comprehensive view of the beauty of Vietnam and its people from North to South, seen from the perspective of the sea and islands, through hundreds of photographs—valuable, beautiful, and impressive works of art—by photographers from all over the country, along with emotionally rich articles.

These are precious moments capturing the lives of people and the sea, such as images of fishermen diligently working day and night at sea; boats laden with shrimp and fish returning at dawn; the simple yet enduring rhythm of life amidst the stormy seas… Interspersed among these everyday scenes is the expansive, poetic beauty of Vietnam's islands and seas; the smooth white sands, the crystal-clear blue waters, the brilliant sunrises, or the fiery red sunsets over the ocean.

The book "Vietnam - Seen from the Sea".

The book also vividly reflects activities related to marine conservation, exploitation and development of aquatic resources in conjunction with sustainable development requirements; it introduces marine economic projects such as oil and gas, seaports, coastal tourist areas, etc., thereby demonstrating the enormous potential and advantages of the sea and islands in the country's socio-economic development strategy.

Another prominent feature of "Vietnam - Seen from the Sea" is its portrayal of the vibrant maritime and island culture. The cultural activities and traditional festivals of fishermen in coastal and island areas; the coastal cultural spaces; and the historical and cultural relics associated with the sea and islands all contribute to highlighting the depth of Vietnam's maritime culture, which has been formed and nurtured over many generations.

This book aims to awaken love for the homeland's seas and islands, especially helping the younger generation to better understand, love, and cherish the beloved lands, seas, and islands stretching along the country.

This work also has practical value for the tourism industry. Perhaps the authors wrote about the sea with an open mind and a vast love for it, so the pages are imbued with emotion, inspiring exploration and travel for both domestic and international tourists.
