Located in the Northeast of Vietnam, about 150km from Hanoi, Ha Long Bay is a complex of
nearly 2000 islands and islets and has been recognized twice as a World Nature Heritage Site
by UNESCO, in 1994 and 2000. It becomes the first choice of tourists all over the world while
travelling to Vietnam because of the harmonious combination among the vast space of the sky,
the immense sea, and thousands of stone islands, creating a wonderful artistic breakthrough—a
giant water painting. Ha Long Bay's beauty, in particular, is all natural, without human
intervention. This allows Ha Long Bay to retain its wild but charming look. With thousands of
large and small stone islands in the turquoise waters, Ha Long Bay is worthy of being one of the
top natural wonders of the world.
