Halong Bay is located in the northeast of Vietnam and was awarded World Heritage Site status in 1994. It is the most popular destination for tourists to this part of Vietnam and is made up of approximately 3000 islands which rise out of the water and have a magical and mysterious aura about them. The islands are made up of grottos and beaches that have been created by the wind and the water that surrounds them although Vietnamese legend says that the islands were created by a mountain dwelling dragon. He is said to have carved out the landscape with his tail before plunging into the water which then filled the landscape only leaving the peaks of the rocks sticking out.
These ‘islands’ can be viewed from the relative comfort of a boat and sailing holidays for singles and groups are common, but Halong Bay also has other things to offer. There are many caves in the Bay which tourists come to explore, some of which have been illuminated, specifically for their benefit. As well as the caves, Cat Ba National Park offers great opportunities for hiking and seeing more of the stunning scenery.The way to get to Halong Bay is via Halong City, where you can organise a trip to Halong Bay if you did not do this prior to arriving in Vietnam. There is no doubt that the best way to see Halong Bay and its stunning landscape is from the water. Part of most organised tours of this region will include a boat trip through the bay and possibly even the chance to sleep on the boat. There are also many boating and sailing holidays for singles and groups available which will offer you the chance to sail through the bay in varying degrees of comfort and style.
Whatever time of year you choose to visit, it is likely to be affected by the weather. Visiting between February and April means the weather will be cool and potentially rainy, with fog also becoming a problem. However in the summer months, the area is prone to tropical storms so boat trips will be subject to change.
If you are visiting Vietnam, even for a short time, then Halong Bay has to be on your list of places to see. It has a unique and spectacular landscape and has to be seen to be truly appreciated.

1,3. In Vietnam there are many festivals. Most festivals are wonderful and interesting. Here I would like to tell a few festivals that I think are the most important. The first is the Hung Temple Festival - the death anniversary of King Hung Vuong. This is a traditional festival of Vietnamese people commemorating Hung Vuong's country building. A traditional ceremony is held annually on the 10th day of the third month of the lunar calendar at Hung Temple. Next is the Perfume pagoda festival. Perfume Pagoda is a famous landmark. Unlike any pagoda, Huong pagoda makes a collection of many caves and pagodas in a combined structure that is both natural and artificial. The attraction of Huong Son is not only on the outside but also on the inside. That is the deep beauty rich in folk philosophy of the cave. Therefore, the Huong pagoda festival is one of the most interesting in Vietnam. Thirdly, the Bai Dinh pagoda festival is a pilgrimage festival to the ancient capital of Hoa Lu in Ninh Binh province. The annual Bai Dinh festival always attracts many tourists to participate. Tourists come here not only to worship and offer incense to Buddha but also to travel to spring, to admire the magnificent scenery, to mingle with the vast and pure sacred space in the Buddha realm. In Loc Vuong Ward, Nam Dinh City, Nam Dinh Province, Tran Temple Festival is held from 15th to 20th of the eighth lunar month every year in Loc Vuong ward, Nam Dinh city, Nam Dinh province to gratitude for the work of 14 Tran kings. Since 2000, Nam Dinh has held the Opening Ceremony of Tran Temple at dawn on January 15. At first, the custom of opening the seal was confined to the village of Tuc Mac, gradually becoming a great festival. The above are just some of the wonderful festivals in Vietnam, I like the most, the ceremony to Hung because it shows the gratitude of our people to the Hung kings for making the country.

1. Dalat Flower Festival is a festive event held in Da Lat city, Lam Dong, Vietnam and some other localities in Lam Dong province in December - the month when Dalat has the best weather of the year.
