Dubbed the roof of southern Vietnam, it is home to a number of Buddhist pagodas and temples.
The 54 winners received Sony digital imaging equipment and their works will be exhibited at Somerset House in London, the U.K., next April.
The entries were judged anonymously by a panel of judges.
Since its inception in 2007, the Sony World Photography Awards has proven to be a platform for some of the world's most evocative photography.
