The image provides a glimpse into the bustling activity of the port during the early twentieth century, with steam boats and various transport vehicles dotting the landscape.
The presence of colonial influences is evident as French flags fly high, symbolizing European involvement in this region of Asia. The construction site and shipyard in the background hint at ongoing development and infrastructure projects taking place during this time period.
The photograph not only serves as a visual record of transportation means and modes of conveyance from that era but also offers insight into the cultural exchange between East and West. It highlights how Vietnam was part of French Indochina, reflecting both Asian and European influences within its society.
Overall, this image is a testament to historical moments frozen in time, capturing the essence of Haiphong's maritime industry and its significance within Southeast Asia.
