Ninh Binh Walking Tour
Ninh Binh, Vietnam
Why Walk Ninh Binh
Ninh Binh province in northern Vietnam offers landscapes as dramatic as Halong Bay but on land — towering limestone karsts rise vertically from flooded rice paddies. Boat trips along the rivers pass through caves and past temples nestled at the base of cliffs. The area includes the ancient Vietnamese capital of Hoa Lu and the vast Trang An scenic complex, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

May through June when rice paddies are vivid green, and September through October for the golden harvest. Avoid weekends when Vietnamese visitors crowd Tam Coc.
