[Photos] The Streets of 1970 Saigon Captured by Jerry Bosworth

Saigon has come a long way from 1970 when it was truly feeling the effects of war. During this time, much of the government’s funds were going towards military equipment, leaving little for infrastructure development, a problem compounded by the millions of refugees who had migrated to the city.

Photographer, Jerry Bosworth traveled to Saigon during this period of gloom and captured these striking black and white images.
