Gateway to the King Dinh Tien Hoang Temple.

We spent a day in Hoa Lu District, Ninh Binh Province, the old capital of Vietnam between the 10th and 11th century. They described this province as the Ha Long Bay in land, and it actually is! The province is surrounded by mountains and hills. While the scenery reminded me of New Zealand, Ninh Binh still has its unique character that is incomparable.

The receptionist of the Homestay was very friendly and helpful. The room was cozy and had complementary beverages and snacks. Breakfast was included, which was fresh made and delicious. After our visit, we even received some more snacks for our trip back to Hanoi. I can definitely recommend it.

Beautiful area with gorgeous mountains, waterways, and wildlife. But unfortunately, local tourists from Vietnam as well as some foreign tourists litter and damage the ecosystems. Also big problem with burning of trash with plastics causing toxic air.

5/5 - Excellent

Go exploring in the smaller roads among the rice paddies. Far fewer tourists, though I didn't find the number of tourists too bad overall. Just go out early and definitely get off the main roads. Very safe and the exact beauty I hoped for in Vietnam.
