Beauty of the Central Highlands

With its sun, wind, and red basalt soil, the Central Highlands evokes many emotions in those who visit. The fields, villages, hills, and dirt tracks seem to vibrate in the sun and wind, as if stirred by this region’s strong essence. The fierce beauty of the people in the Central Highlands is as intense as that of the ancient trees in its vast forests, as innocent as the rushing streams and waterfalls, and as brilliant as blooming pơ lang flowers displaying their vivid colors.

Feeling closely connected with the Central Highlands, photographer Thái Bana has captured many portraits of people from the region’s ethnic minority communities. Join Heritage Magazine in admiring his photo collection, “Beauty of the Central Highlands,” which celebrates the area’s rugged, profound, and epic qualities.
