Journey three hours east from Hanoi through verdant rice fields, seemingly teeming with life during harvest and planting season. Upon arrival in Halong 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, marveling at some of the most impressive stalactite and stalagmite formations anywhere in the world.
