The Beautiful Green

TRAVEL GUIDE
Ninh Binh Vietnam

Vietnam’s economy is developing rapidly, and big cities such as Ho Chi Minh and Hanoi are being modernized. However, the original scenery of Southeast Asia in our memory is the deep green world that we once saw in the movies “Indochine” and “The Scent of Green Papaya”. People live in quiet watersides, rice fields, and raise goats and ducks. The place called Ninh Binh still has that life. Ninh Binh is located between the characteristic mountains, about 150km by car from Hanoi. There are many famous places in it. As the car approaches Tam Coc, the center of Ninh Binh, a beautiful green world emerges and a wonderful journey begins.

Ninh Binh Vietnam Temple

An ancient city where the capital was once located here. The scale has the impression of a small temple, with no remnants of medieval glory. However, this is an important place in history. An hour may be enough, but I want to get in touch with the culture.

It is located far from the center of Ninh Binh. There is no excessive production, but the warm smiles of the staff are waiting.
