Scenic Halong Bay, with its emerald seas, rests
beautifully over the Red River Delta. This
region, "the Bay of the Descending Dragon", is
dotted with more than 3,000 mountainous islands,
each with its own unique landscape. The islands
are famous for their dolomite and limestone rock
formations, many of which have been given names.
Natural grottos, fjords, land tunnels and inlets
are also common. During the Vietnam War,
numerous large ships sailed through the open
waters of the bay and now an excursion by junk,
cruises or fishing boat gives you the memorable
experience of sailing past silent, sea-girt
caves and around the spectacular formations,
tasting fresh and authentic Vietnamese cuisines,
breathing cool breezing from the Gulf of Tonkin
and enjoying a romantic night with your sweet
hearts under the starry sky. That's all we can
say how fantastic Halong is and how amazing our
junk cruise you will feel because it's simply
the best that we can offer you.
