This is the third services we booked from Hien.Halong Bay day tour trip.Van took us from the hotel. It's raining day and our van is full of tourists from various countries.

1) Thanh Dong Humanity Center
We depart from Hanoi around 08.00. After about 2 hours driving, we stopped at the Humanity Center.It is a place where local people who are the victims of the Vietnam war gathered and worked there.Here, they sewing their products and sell to the tourist. Their handcraft product such as paintings,clothes and handbags.




2) Halong Bay
We arrive here at noon. Halong Bay is one of the World’s Natural Heritage recognized by UNESCO.Hanoi must go places-it features more than one thousand awesome limestone karsts and islands of various sizes and shapes.

According to the legend,the bay was actually created when an immense dragon plunged to Earth here before recorded history. Its mighty tail carved the great stone seabed violently before the creature flew away to the place where legends are born.


The landscape very beautiful. With the boat ala-ala Pirate of The Caribbean, we enjoyed the ride very much.Food also served in the boat.We just ate fruit and take plain rice eat with my serunding as they serve pork as well in our menu.You can also take two days trip to Halong Bay and sleep in this boat.

We visit the spectacular Heaven Palace cave, crammed with stalagtites and stalagmites. The cave is so wow beautiful. The cave imposed with light colours to show clearly the image that had been build by the stalagtites and stalagmites.Starge image can be seen such as birds, flowers, horse and human life.

Legend has it that a beautiful young lady named May (cloud), caught the eye of the Dragon Prince and he fell in love with her. They married and happily live ever after with their 100 children. Scenes such as their wedding ceremony have been seemingly fossilized in the grotto.

3) Tien Son handicraft Village

Mostly similar like Thang Dong Humanity Center but this one more commercial and fully for business purpose.I just bought book tag here.

Van send us back to our hostel.This is indeed funny memories. The van stop in front of our hostel but we didn't notice it.We keep walking till the end of the road trying to find our hostel.Banyak gakla kitorang kutuk van tu sebab tak hantar kitorang betul2 dpn hostel.Well,not long before that,we realised that we actually at in front of the hostel.The van drop us there-it just us who didn't notice it.Hmm...biasalah.Tak sesat memang tak sah.
