I love visiting Ha Long Bay, it is located in Quang Ninh province, in the northeast of Vietnam. It consists of 1, 960 islets, most of which are limestone. The bay has undergone hundreds of millions years of history.
Ha Long Bay is home to 14 endemic floral species and 60 endemic faunal species. Its climate is typically tropical and wet with 2 seasons including hot, moist summers and dry, cold winters. This area marked important events in the history of Vietnam with many artifacts found in Bai Tho Mount, Dau Go Cave and Bai Chay.
The best season to visit Ha Long is in summer when the weather is warm and sunny. Ha Long Bay has many beautiful caves and islands; therefore, you must take a boat trip to enjoy the view here. You certainly must take pictures to remember the trip better, too. If you are an active person, you must do the water sports here like swimming, sailing, and windsurfing. One more thing, you must try the seafood here because it is incredibly fresh and delicious.
Ha Long Bay has received many awards and designations. In 1962, it was designated as a 'Renowned National Landscape Monument' by the Vietnam Ministry of Culture, Sport and Tourism. Also, in 1994, it was first listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site by UNESCO for its outstanding, universal aesthetic value. In 2000, the World Heritage Committee additionally recognised Ha Long Bay for its outstanding geological and geomorphological value.
With its outstanding features, Ha Long Bay is one of the most worth visiting places in Vietnam. I hope that you will have a wonderful time here.
