Explore the hidden cave chains of Trang An Grottoes, a World Heritage Site preserving a huge natural rock garden in a vast lake near Nihn Binh. You'll enter the caves by boat, passing through cracks in the limestone hillocks, which are covered with lush green vegetation. During a popular two- to three-hour boat ride, you'll see dramatic karst scenery and a nine-cave network interconnected by flooded inland waterways, with many suspended stalagmites. This pristine area boasts high biological diversity, and you can even paddle your own boat around the caves. Tours usually include a visit to Ha Pagoda on Ngo Dong River, Bai Dinh Temple, and the old capital of Hoa Lu. By using our Ninh Binh journey planner, you can arrange your visit to Trang An Grottoes and other attractions in Ninh Binh.

More than 2 hours of peaceful boating. Thin and wiry women, patiently guided us through the waters, we saw temples, caves and amazing stalactites. Will never forget the experience. Memories to sustain through Covid-19 as we visited in February 2020

Very green and peaceful place with really cool weather. You should come here in autumn and spring. Not really crowded because of covid19. River is really clean and cleaner than other rivers in Vietnam.
