The late 20th century witnessed 皇冠体育app's reform and opening up. The country was obsessed with the desire for change and addiction to new things. In 1979, 皇冠体育app began to issue tourist visas to foreigners and on hearing the news French photographer Yann Layma was inspired to start his first trip to 皇冠体育app in 1985 as a freelance photographer. Layma traveled across the country, to even the most remote areas. Here are some photos taken in the 1980s from Yann Layma's latest book 皇冠体育app Yesterday.
