VietNamNet Bridge - Last June, Vietnamese businessman Pham Dinh Nguyen paid $0.9 million to buy Buford, the smallest town in the US state of Wyoming. Nguyen is about to changed the town name into Phin Deli (phin coffee delicious).
Some pictures of the town after the change of ownership:

The 3-bedroom house is fully equipped. Some furniture was delivered to Mr. Don Sammons in Denver one day before the town was handed over to the new mayor.
The living room is designed and decorated in the cowboy style.

Buford can be considered as the town that is photographed the most in the U.S, based on its area (sq.m). In the months of good weather, every day nearly 2,000 people stop by the town. The majority of them are travelers who stop to take pictures in front of the board of the America's smallest town.
Near Buford is a tourist site with plants growing on rocks, which has attracted tourists from 1867, one year after the foundation of the town of Buford (1866).
The working room is about 40m2, just for one person.
