Ninh Binh
Ninh Binh is like Ha Long Bay on land - and honestly, we think it might be even more magical! Those limestone cliffs rising from emerald rice fields are absolutely stunning, and the boat rides through the caves are pure adventure. The best part? Way fewer tourists than Ha Long Bay! Climb up to Hang Mua for epic panoramic views, explore ancient temples, and get lost in the peaceful countryside. This is Vietnam at its most beautiful!
