Touring Halong Bay
I have added an off the beaten path destination which is just a few kilometers away from the famous Ha Long Bay. It’s Yen Tu, in Uong Bi.
This is really a perfect place if you’re looking for something quiet, peaceful, and close to nature. Yen Tu is known for its mountain and it’s called the capital of Buddhism in Vietnam. Because for over 700 years they’re still able to preserve the temples, authentic and valuable relics, and the massive system of pagodas. Indeed! Yen Tu can offer calmness at it’s finest.
