Destination Vietnam
Halong Bay
Halong Bay is often called Vietnam’s eighth wonder of the world and once visited, it is hard to dispute that claim. 3000 spectacular limestone outcroppings, cliffs, arches and coves compete for space in an area that is without doubt the most outstandingly naturally beautiful in the country – an incomparable coastal scenery.
Hire a traditional Chinese-style sailing junk and meander through the area whose name translates as ‘Where the Dragon Descends into the Sea’, stop off at an islet and climb through a series of breathtaking caves and grottoes, marvelling at some of the most impressive stalactite and stalagmite formations anywhere in the world.
