Ninh Binh accommodation from AU$24

Tam Coc is a highlight of any trip to Ninh Binh, with similar scenery to the famous and splendid Halong Bay, but without the crowds, leaving you free to enjoy the area’s splendour in relative peace and quiet. Limestone karsts rise up out of the lush rice paddies, and you can take a boat ride to fully appreciate the raw beauty of this place. There are also caves to explore and plenty of opportunities for hiking and climbing. The Trang An Grottoes are also high on the list of things to do in Ninh Binh; sail through caves and caverns, see interesting rock formations, and really feel like you have entered a secret underground world. For even more caves, head to the Mua Caves, where you will also be rewarded with excellent scenic views.

Nature lovers are sure to enjoy the fabulous Cuc Phuong National Park, where you can stroll through native rainforest and view an abundance of wildlife. There is a rescue centre for primates within the national park that is also well worth a visit. The area around Ninh Binh also has the remains of an ancient city, including temples, churches, tombs, pagodas, and observation points.
