Field trip to Trang An – Ninh Binh on October 25, 2024

Join us for an enriching and scenic field trip as part of the International Conference “Green Transformation 2024”!

 

Duration: 1 day / Transport: shuttle bus / Departure: Daily tour

Located in Ninh Binh province, 100 km southeast of Hanoi, Hoa Lu and Tam Coc eco-tourism are two of the most picturesque spots in the north. For 41 years, from 968 to 1009 CE, Hoa Lu was the ancient capital of Vietnam. Nearby Tam Coc is often called “Ha Long among the rice paddies.” Visitors are conveyed by rowboat along the peaceful Ngo Dong stream past green fields and the feet of mountains into the mouths of caves, where they encounter new surprises, like stalactites and stalagmites that shimmer like gemstones just inches from the water.
