Ninh Binh Vietnam is known for its stunning natural landscapes and rich cultural heritage.

Places to visit:
Trang An Landscape Complex: A UNESCO World Heritage Site, Trang An offers breathtaking boat tours through a network of caves, waterways, and lush greenery. Situated near the southern margin of the Red River Delta, the Trang An Landscape Complex is a spectacular landscape of limestone karst peaks permeated with valleys, many of them partly submerged and surrounded by steep, almost vertical cliffs.

Exploration of caves at different altitudes has revealed archaeological traces of human activity over a continuous period of more than 30,000 years. They illustrate the occupation of these mountains by seasonal hunter-gatherers and how they adapted to major climatic and environmental changes, especially the repeated inundation of the landscape by the sea after the last ice age. The story of human occupation continues through the Neolithic and Bronze Ages to the historical era. Hoa Lu, the ancient capital of Viet Nam, was strategically established here in the 10th and 11th centuries AD. The property also contains temples, pagodas, paddy fields, and small villages.

Bai Dinh Pagoda: One of the largest Buddhist pagodas in Southeast Asia, Bai Dinh Pagoda features impressive architecture, beautiful statues, and stunning panoramic views. The old Bai Dinh pagoda is located on the western slope of Dinh Mountain and nestles in a quiet forest. The pagoda houses an ancestor-worshipping house in the center, a Bright cave on the right-hand side that worships the Buddha, and a small temple worshipping Genie Cao Son.

In addition, on the left-hand side of the pagoda is another temple worshipping Saint Nguyen, and next to it is Dark Cave which worships the Fairy. With fanciful scenery and a quiet atmosphere, the pagoda will make visitors feel likely to live in a fairy land and find peace in their minds.
