Workers bundled and dried incense sticks in the sun in Quang Phu Cau, one of the most famous incense-making villages in Hanoi, Vietnam.
These photos were taken by Sabina Akter from Bangladesh, who explained the process of making incense. Incense sticks are set out to dry after being dipped in incense solution. Once dried, they are sent to different parts of Vietnam to be sold.
