Ninh Binh Town is located approximately 90 km south of Hanoi and is renowned for its stunning landscapes. Among these is Mua Cave, also known as the “dancing cave,” which offers fantastic trekking opportunities to conquer Mua Mountain. From the top, visitors can enjoy breathtaking views and capture beautiful photos of the limestone mountains, Ngo Giang River, and the rice fields in Tam Coc and Trang An. Visitors are encouraged to come and experience the beauty firsthand. Tam Coc, meaning “three caves,” offers a unique experience where visitors can sit in a small boat rowed by local people (or try rowing themselves) along a narrow canal that passes through three caves beneath a large mountain, flanked by lush green rice fields and magnificent limestone formations.
