Trang An

The Trang An Landscape, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Vietnam, is a stunning blend of natural and cultural wonders. Recognized in 2014 as the country’s first mixed heritage site, it features dramatic limestone karst peaks, lush rainforests, and a network of subterranean waterways navigable by boat. Archaeological evidence reveals human activity spanning over 30,000 years, while historical sites like the ancient capital of Hoa Lu highlight its significance from the 10th and 11th centuries. This picturesque destination, often called "Ha Long Bay on land," seamlessly intertwines breathtaking scenery with a rich tapestry of Vietnam’s past.
