Attractions - Famous for the name 'Nam Thien De Nhi Dong', Tam Coc Bich Dong possesses a peaceful village scene and an impressive limestone cave system. As part of Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex, Tam Coc Bich Dong is the perfect destination for those who want to fully explore the beauty of the river. More specifically, if you have the opportunity to come to Tam Coc Bich Dong in the last days of May and early June, you will surely be overwhelmed by the brilliant scenery of the rice fields in full bloom throughout the journey. At this time, the rice fields on both sides of the river are a harmonious combination between the green of young seedling and the bright yellow of ripe rice. This is a perfect picture of a river scene that makes everyone nervous and excited. Hotels - Tam Coc Garden Resort Food & Restaurants - Thung Sen Tam Coc Restaurant & Cafe #vietnam #mytripvlog

Located about 90km from Hanoi, Ninh Bihn region is definitely must see place when visiting Vietnam. Beside Halong Bay this is the biggest tourist attraction. One of the places I really enjoyed is boat cruise on Ngo Dong river, where boats are driven by feet, which makes it super interesting cruise among beautiful scenery of limestone mountains and three stalactite caves. There will be a close look on Mua Cave from different point of view. At the turning point there will be small floating market where you can buy food, fruit, snacks, and drinks for yourself and also your boat driver as a gesture of appreciation. Whole tour is about 2 hours and costs around 10usd. Definitely a place to spend part of your day visiting this beautiful region. #tamcoc #vietnam #muacave #rivercruise

If you are visiting Tam Coc, and you wish to stay for couple of nights, than this Tropical Homestay might be perfect place for you. Bungalows are big and cozy, owner is super nice and polite and helpful. It s beautiful and peaceful. Swimming pool in the yard is great place to sit and chill if you don t want to swim. This homestay is in city center. 2 min walk from Tam Coc boat ride and all restaurants around. Definitely every recommendation for this place as it s great value for the money :) #tamcoc #homestay #vietnam #vietnamtravel

Halong Bay is famous as the top tourist destination in northern Vietnam, but Tam Coc has a view that can be described as "Halong Bay on land"! This area, which can be toured by traditional pedal boats, is a sight to behold, with strange rocks and caves created by the karst topography. There are many tours from Hanoi, making it a spot where you can easily enjoy the idyllic countryside and spectacular views😆

#celebratewithtrip If you want to learn more about a place you're exploring, guided tours can be the most informative. Still, try to raise questions regarding what you see. It enriches a traveler further if you don't just visit an area but also pick up some knowledge about its history. Climbing up the Lying Dragon Mountain in Vietnam's Ninh Binh province, I tried to keep up with the lady who was sharing stories about the mountain. Learning about what she shared made the hike more special knowing the tales that the site holds. Have you been to this place? What secret do you know that took place here? Let's share fun facts and celebrate this trip!

Water Temple at Trang An in Ninh Binh; This is definitely one of my top must visit sites for anyone who is looking for serenity on their path to enlightenment. The energy here reminds me of the vortex in Sedona. You leave here feeling full and rejuvenated. We took a tour from Hanoi for $33/each. The tour started at 830am and lasted until 8pm. It included a buffet meal, pickup and dropoff from hotel within Old town, a few water bottles, all entrance fees and a local guide. Bring some extra tips for the guides. It was pouring when we went on the tour and the boat captain pushed all 4 of us along the river without an umbrella. She still had a smile on her face and offered to take photos for us. #tours #vietnam #ninhbinh #trangan #visitvietnam #viet #meetlocals #travel #travelphotographer #travelphotography #tamcoc

Taking a boat tour in Tam Coc will lead you to the places where most of the photos from Ninh Binh area are taken. Have you seen that river surrounded by rice fields and mountains? Here you will have the chance to see it in real life. I absolutely loved this place and I recommend this boat tour as a must see if you are in the Ninh Binh Province. You can also easily link this trip to other nearby attractions such as the famous Hang Mua Peak, the Thai Vi Temple which are just 10 minutes away from the start of the Tam Coc boat tour or the Bich Dong Pagoda. Ninh Binh is well know for its spectacular views with mountains popping out of the rice fields. This boat tour will allow you to experience all that while taking a relaxing boat ride. At about the middle of the boat ride you will have the chance to admire the Hang Mua Peak from a different perspective. Also, if you are lucky enough you will see pigs swimming in the river. #passionpassport #staycation #mountainview

Hoa Lư was the capital of Vietnam's Dinh Dynasty (968-980) and the former Le Dynasty (980-1009), located in Hoa Lu District, Ninh Binh Province, Vietnam today. After Li Taizu moved the capital to Thang Long (today's Hanoi City) in 1010, Hua Lu no longer served as the capital of Vietnam. In addition to Lulong Bay, this scenic spot is also a popular photo and check-in spot. #local游

There is a winding river in Tam Coc, Ninh Binh, that runs through the limestone rocks. Visitors can take a small boat to tour Tam Coc, which is arranged by the ticket office at the pier. The rowers here all use their feet to row, which is quite special. The bamboo raft trip takes about 2 hours and takes the same fixed route both ways. You will pass through several limestone caves during the rafting trip. In addition, during the rice ripening season in May and June every year, the scenery will be very beautiful, making it one of the tourist attractions.

Tam Coc is a village near Hanoi. The scenery is nice and everything is good, but the solicitation is really bad. You should definitely bring a hat because the sun is strong. It was such a nice place that I want to go back. #Vietnam

Also known as Ha Long bay on land, Tam Coc is a small, misty town in Vietnam How to get there- Vietnam is well supplied with buses and trains which also operate over night What to do: - Go for a river boat ride where the people row with their feet! - Explore the local countryside on bike or foot. Bikes and motorbikes are rented easily from many hostels - Climb the viewpoint on one of the nearby hills- best view at sunrise or sunset. As you can see from the photos.. we didn’t get much of a view

In some places, the rain turned into a disaster scene, and in this place of Vietnam, after a rain, even the temples became the same as the wonderland. There is a quiet city about two hours from Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. Its name is Ning Ping, where you can not only see the old buildings of the past, but also the landscapes like a fairyland. After riding the boat, you can see the Bidong Temple in about ten minutes by bicycle. After the rain, the whole temple is on the water and it is very Zen. Built in the 10th century and the Li Dynasty, Bidong and the temples on the mountain were built along the caves. They are divided into upper, middle and lower floors. The whole temple is made of wood piles, antique, very special and elegant. The temple overlooks the fields and the mountains. Bich Dong Pagoda is located on the outskirts of Ninh Binh, about 11 km from the city.

DAY 8: I originally planned to rent a motorcycle for a day trip to Ninh Binh, but after experiencing the traffic in Hanoi city, I was glad that I chose to join the local tour's luxury bus day tour. Lu Long Bay in Ninh Binh Province is famous for its spectacular limestone peaks, caves and rice fields. Hoa Lu was the capital of Vietnam in the 10th century. Although the old city no longer exists, there are still some ruins and temples that bear witness to this period of history. Tam coc in Lulong Bay Scenic Area means "three caves", namely Hang Ca, Hang Hai and Hang Ba, all located on the Ngo Dong River and now listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The two of us sat in a small boat, one in front and one behind, with the boatman rowing with his feet, starting from Van Lam Pier, enjoying the unique karst topography and beautiful rice field landscape along the way. The limestone caves we entered were lower than one another, and the caves were dark and rugged, but the boatman could accurately control the direction of travel. Passengers should also pay attention to the rocks above their heads and lie down to avoid them. After exiting the cave, it felt like arriving in a paradise, with a feeling of "walking through stone caves with green peaks, suddenly seeing flowers and willows welcoming you". The scenery on both sides changed from endless to surrounded by mountains, as if being in the artistic conception of an ancient poem "the mountains are continuous and the sound is endless, the light boat has passed the green peaks". This is our eighth day in North Vietnam. Please follow our steps and come and see this beautiful world together!

Spent 3 days at Tam Coc Trang and 5 days in Hanoi. Enjoyed the food thoroughly. From the roasted duck in tam coc to the different phos and bahm mi. Not forgetting my favourite Vietnamese coffee with milk.

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 A perfect time to visit Vietnam in winter is when it is the coolest and dryest season!

We set out from Hanoi early in the morning and after a two-hour drive, we finally arrived at the movie set of King Kong, Lu Long Bay, which I had been looking forward to visiting! The scenery I saw at first sight was indeed eye-catching, touching and shocking! What a wonderful natural sight! I couldn't help but admire the professionalism of the film directors. I took a boat operated by a Vietnamese aunt and admired the natural beauty of Lu Long Bay and the stalactites created by nature. Although the tour took more than an hour, it left me wanting more. If I come to Vietnam again, I will definitely visit Lu Long Bay again! #Wonders of Nature

#VietnamTravel #NinhBinh #TamCoc In Ninh Binh, a motorbike tour is much more leisurely and comfortable in both TamCoc and Trang An. When riding a motorbike around the Ngo River, you can feel the harmonious connection with nature as you take in the limestone peaks and endless rice fields at a glance. In particular, TamCoc can be explored more freely by motorbike instead of boat tour. It is also fun to follow the mountain path, pass through villages, and catch a glimpse of the daily lives of local people...You can fully appreciate the limestone caves near TamCoc while riding a motorbike, and you will press the camera shutter at every short stop. TamCoc, which you can leisurely tour by motorbike, is much more free than by boat, and you can capture more scenery, so it is a way to truly feel the joy of traveling.

#2024TravelReview Halong Bay is about the sea scenery, while Lulong Bay is known as "Halong Bay on land". The locals call this place Ninh Binh. In addition to the most classic boat cruise through the limestone caves, you can also visit the ancient capital of Hoa Kaew. Ninh Binh is about 100 kilometers south of Hanoi city and a 2-hour drive away. Hoa Lu is the capital of Vietnam's first independent dynasty. Before the end of the Tang Dynasty, Vietnam was a Chinese county, formerly known as Jiaozhi. It was not until the establishment of the Ding Dynasty in the Northern Song Dynasty that it had its own independent regime. In this ancient capital, you can see Chinese characters on the buildings, which is very special😊. In Tam Coc, take a boat to admire the amazing limestone caves✨️ and the thousands of karst mountains rising from the water on both sides💕. What’s special is that the boatman rowed the boat with his feet, which is so powerful😘! #couples travel #natural beauty #vietnam #ningbin #limestone cave exploration

Tam Coc, located in Ninh Binh Province, Vietnam, is about 100 km south of Hanoi by car, or a 2-hour bus ride. Like Trang An, Tam Coc is also registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is often referred to as the 'Inland Ha Long Bay.' The river in Tam Coc is narrow, with rice fields on both sides and towering limestone karsts, creating a breathtaking landscape. The river cruise in Tam Coc lasts for 1 hour and 45 minutes, allowing you to enjoy the scenery and spend a relaxing time. Be sure to visit and experience it for yourself.

#Lulongwan #Land of Halongwan #King Kong Filming Location #Ningbin #North Vietnam Secret Place It is a one-day round trip from Hanoi city. If you come to North Vietnam, don’t miss Lu Long Bay, the filming location of "Kong: Skull Island", and enjoy the beautiful natural scenery! Arriving at Lu Long Bay in Ninh Binh, it is really peaceful and comfortable. Compared to Ha Long Bay where there are many stairs to climb, it is less strenuous and stressful. However, it is a two-hour boat ride and there is no shelter (there are long-handled umbrellas on the boat), so it is recommended to prepare a hat, sunscreen and water. You can dock in the middle and stretch your legs. Most of the people rowing the boat are older sisters and aunts with great physical strength. They have great boat-controlling skills and can make turns as they please and stop wherever they want. If your finances allow, give them a little tip as an encouragement! #Wonders of Nature #Travel Inspiration
