HaNoi-NinhBinh-HaNoi

2 DAY(S)

NinhBinh

Ninh Binh, home to the limestone karst mountains that used to protect Vietnam’s feudal capital, ranked seventh on a list of the 10 most welcoming destinations on Earth published Booking.com.

The ranking was based on an analysis of more than 240 million verified customer reviews on the Dutch-based online travel agency website Booking.com.

Around 90 kilometers south of Hanoi, Ninh Binh, home to Hoa Lu (the ancient capital of Vietnam during the reign of the Dinh Dynasty 968-980), had been overlooked by foreign tourists for years.

The province, known for its river boat tours through limestone karst mountain passes and paddy fields, started shining on global stage after the Hollywood movie “Kong: Skull Island” was filmed there in 2016.
