Ha Long Bay

Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1994, is one of the world's most spectacular natural wonders. Located in northeastern Vietnam, this stunning seascape features nearly 2,000 limestone karsts and islands of various sizes and shapes, creating a dramatic landscape that has inspired poets and artists for centuries.

The bay's name translates to 'Descending Dragon Bay,' derived from a legendary tale of dragons that helped the Vietnamese defend against invaders. Today, visitors can explore hidden caves, floating fishing villages, secluded beaches, and enjoy world-class kayaking, swimming, and overnight junk boat cruises.
