Continuing the digital footsteps in the cultured North - From the Central Region to the North – Star Global's Footprint on the Journey to Explore Digital Vietnam - 3D/360 Interactive Web/App Solutions, the journey ofStarGlobal 3Dhas now moved south – the gentle waterways of the West, fruits of all seasons, and unique culture. Each province is a stop with distinctive cultural features, landscapes, and people, captured authentically through modern technology, ready to provide vibrant online tour experiences anytime, anywhere.

Here, the technical and filming team of StarGlobal 3D has directly operated, bringing along drones and 360-degree cameras to fully capture the beauty of each region. Under the early sunlight and amidst the flowing rivers, the filming process is not merely data collection – it is a journey weaving through each canal, market corner, village, and touching the most precious moments of the gentle West. Each destination is not only preserved in images but also comes alive in a vibrant, realistic digital space – thanks to the technology you hold in your hands.

Can Tho - Unique Features from the Floating Market to Ninh Kieu Bridge

Cai Rang Floating Market welcomed us with morning mist and a bustling life before the sun had even risen. Small boats filled with fruits and vegetables wove through the river – all captured by the StarGlobal 3D team, filming from various angles: on land, underwater, and even from the air with specialized flying equipment.

This is the first stop in the Mekong Delta for the collaboration project between StarGlobal 3D and the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Tourism aimed at digitizing the cultural and tourism spaces of 63 provinces and cities. In addition to the floating market, the team also conducted night shoots at the Ninh Kieu pedestrian bridge – where modern lights blend with traditional flows, creating a vibrant and lively urban picture.

Integrating with modern technology, this place has been applying digitization techniques to introduce culture in a more vivid way. Tourists can experience virtual reality applications, virtual tours, and learn about history through 3D technology for a more engaging experience. To better understand this trend, you can explore 3D spatial solutions fromStar Global products, which are creating innovative changes in preserving and promoting the value of cultural heritage.

An Giang welcomed the StarGlobal team during the flood season –the most beautiful season of the year. At the Tra Su cajuput forest, the team useda drone gliding over the forest canopy, flying along the canal paths to capture panoramic scenes from above. Each film frame and each photo were taken under natural weather conditions and real lighting to preserve the essence of the environment.

Atthe exhibition of President Ton Duc Thang, the technical team performed a 360-degree scan of the entire interior, displays, and the arrangement of each information board, allowing viewers to “virtually tour” and interact with every detail as if they were standing in the historical room.

Dong Thap - Journey

Heritage Marker Presentation in the Land of Pink Lotus

Dong Thap – the poetic land of pink lotus – is a special destination in the digitalization journey of the StarGlobal team. Here, we recorded and recreated three typical landmarks, where cultural, historical, and ecological values harmoniously converge:the ancient house of Huynh Thuy Le, Go Thap National ParkandTram Chim National Park.....

At the ancient house of Huynh Thuy Le– one of the iconic architectural works of Sa Dec city – the StarGlobal team implemented a 360-degree shoot to fully capture the ancient beauty and cultural depth of this over 100-year-old house. Linked to the famous love story in the workThe Loverby French writer Marguerite Duras, the ancient house is not only a living space but also a historical witness.

Every detail of the wood carvings, the tiled roof, and the interior reflects a strong combination of French and Eastern architecture, preserved through digital technology. This is an important step in the journey of urban heritage preservation and introducing the cultural beauty of Sa Dec closer to the community through the 3D/360 platform.

At Tram Chim National Park, the StarGlobal team has fully captured the beauty of one of the most typical wetland ecosystems in the West. This is the habitat of hundreds of rare bird species, especially thered-headed crane- a symbol of the Dong Thap Muoi region and a bird listed for global conservation.

Using drone technology and 360-degree cameras, we recreate the vast natural space, with carpets of grass, endless cajuput forests, and boats weaving through the waterways.

Through the 3D/360 digitalization platform, StarGlobal not only preserves images but also offers a form of authentic experience - where the heritage of Dong Thap comes to life through each interactive perspective.

Soc Trang - The Unique Khmer Culture

In the journey of digitizing the Mekong Delta,Soc Trangis an emotional destination for the StarGlobal team. Not only is it distinguished by its waterways, but it also preserves the unique spiritual and cultural values of the Khmer community – clearly expressed through the system of temples with unique architecture and deep compassion.

We have conducted operations at famous temples such asBat Temple, Chén Kiểu Temple– where Khmer patterns blend with traditional beliefs to create vibrant spiritual spaces. Each curved temple roof, the statues lined along the corridors, and the colorful details of the decorations are all fully captured usingdrones and 360-degree cameras, ready to be integrated into an interactive 3D digital space.

The sound of the wind and the rustling bamboo leaves in the gentle breeze harmonizes with the breath of nature.

Not just an ecological tourist spot,Tu Sang Bamboo Gardenis also an iconic image of a lifestyle close to nature – something that StarGlobal aims to spread through smart digitalization technology.

The Exploration Journey Continues – Join Us

The digitalization journey of the Mekong Deltais an essential part of the overall picture of buildinga 3D/360 digital heritage map nationwide– a project implemented byStarGlobal in collaboration with the Ho Chi Minh City Department of TourismWith each stop, we not only capture images but also fully recreate the cultural, natural, and historical space of the prosperous southern land using modern technology.

Thanks to the 3D/360 platform application, heritages that seemed only possible to experience in person are now ready tobe accessed remotely, explored anytime, anywhere, no longer limited by distance or field conditions. The culture of the Mekong Delta – from floating markets, islets, temples to unique ecosystems – is vividly coming to life on the digital map, with each interactive perspective being realistic.

The provinces have been marked as the beginning of a longer, deeper journey. There are still many lands and valuable indigenous values waiting to be touched, preserved, and spread.

StarGlobal 3D will continue to accompany localities, gradually enriching the treasure of Vietnamese heritage in the digital space – contributing to the preservation, promotion, and elevation of national cultural values in the era of global digital transformation.

Conclusion

The footsteps of Star Global 3D have explored and captured the beautiful images of the waterway region in the Southwest, from the vibrant life of the floating markets to the simplicity of the orchards. Each place holds unique stories and becomes a part of the creative digitization process. Hopefully, with the profound records from the field trips, we will have a fresher perspective on the beauty of Vietnam. The journey does not stop here; there are still many new lands waiting for the footsteps of Star Global 3D to explore.
