Halong Bay, Vietnam | Wandering in the maze wonderland of the sea stone forest

|Wander in the maze wonderland of the sea stone forest. Xunzhou Island Xun Chau Island is an earthen island in Halong Bay. There are many beautiful two-story buildings on the island, scattered in an orderly manner. Among them is an octagonal, seemingly inconspicuous building hidden among the green trees. It looks ordinary, but it was the place where Chairman Ho Chi Minh stayed to rest and vacation when he came to Halong Bay for sightseeing. 2Halong Bay Take a ride on Vietnam's unique mahogany boat to roam around Halong Bay, the filming location of the famous movie "Tomorrow Never Dies", one of the world's eight major natural heritage sites and one of the world's new seven natural wonders, "Guilin on the Sea". On the sea surface of more than 1,500 square kilometers, there are more than 3,600 karst rocks of various sizes and shapes, which have been eroded by the sea into magnificent landscapes. The strange mountains and islands are even better than Phang Nga Bay in Phuket. Climb up to the island to visit the wonders of the karst caves, and wander around Halong Bay to enjoy the iconic scenery, such as the Wolf Dog Rock, Incense Burner Mountain, and the Fighting Cock Rock. On the way, you can buy some fish, shrimps, crabs, shellfish and other delicious seafood from the fishermen in the offshore fishing village, and have them cooked by the cruise ship's cooks (inquire about the price from the fishermen in advance before buying, the cooks' processing fee is charged separately). Sitting on the cruise ship, enjoying the beautiful scenery of "Guilin on the Sea" while feasting on the food, a wonderful feeling will quietly spread over your body. 3 Labyrinth Wonderland Depart from Fighting Cock Rock to visit one of the highlights of Halong Bay, the [Maze Wonderland], and take a cruise to admire the various independent fairy rocks (Thumb Mountain, Frog Mountain, Swan Mountain) and other scenery. 4. Moon Lake Take a boat to the sea cenote [Moon Lake]. After arriving at the cave entrance, change to a small wooden boat to enter the cave. The sea cenote is an enclosed bay with 360-degree vertical cliffs, which is ethereal and secluded. The lake water is crystal clear and as flat as a mirror. Looking down from above, it looks like a full moon, so it is called the Sea Sinkhole. 5. Paradise Island Take a speedboat to the most romantic and beautiful island in Vietnam - Paradise Island. You can play various beach games on the fine white sand, swim in designated areas, and climb to the top of the island to overlook the panoramic view of Halong Bay and Guilin on the sea. Tips: There are more than 400 steps to climb Paradise Island. Because the steps are a bit steep, it is recommended that tourists over 70 years old or tourists with mobility problems should do it according to their physical condition. 2 After getting ashore, you can get a deeper understanding of the local life in Halong. You can walk through the streets and alleys of Halong in the breeze. There are Vietnamese stalls everywhere on the roadside. Sitting on the roadside with a few friends and drinking a glass of iced tea or juice is the relaxing time we yearn for in the hustle and bustle of fast-paced life. 3 Step on the long, soft, white beach along the coast of Halong Bay and see the golden The sun shines on the blue ocean, facing the sea, waiting for spring flowers to bloom.
