Main Street, Tam Coc

Highlight • Settlement

Tam Coc is a small town near Ninh Binh. It's considered a tourist hotspot for accommodation, as most hotels, restaurants, and homestays are located here. One of two main boat tours departs directly from the town. Unfortunately, it's the less interesting one.

Tam Coc Scenic Area

Highlight • River

The start and finish of a roughly 1.5-hour boat trip through the dry Halong Bay. Naturally overrun with tourists, but still breathtakingly beautiful.

Bích Động Pagoda and Cave

Highlight • Religious Site

The temple "down below" is nice to look at, but the real wow factor is the cave that goes with it (which also has an "altar")! You just have to climb a few steps up - it's definitely worth the effort and you shouldn't miss it! ☝🏻

Serene Valley with Lotus Pond and Cave

Highlight • Natural

A little way, about 15 minutes, behind the Bich Dong Pagoda we found this sleepy valley with a beautiful water lily pond, mountain goats and a cave. Right in front there is also a stall where you can buy cold drinks.
The cave is locked. The man from the kiosk gives a guided tour for 30,000 dong per person.
