Northern Vietnam, Hanoi, Halong Bay, Upper Tonkin travel

Hanoi is striking for the contrast between its bustling energy and the calm inspired by its old colonial buildings, wide tree-lined avenues, parks and lakes. Hanoi is best combined with a stay in Halong, one of the world’s most beautiful natural sites and one of Asia’s most famous landscapes. More than two thousand rocky peaks comprise this magnificent scene, and whatever the season, whether Halong Bay is bathed in sunshine or shrouded in mist, the spectacle is always magical. The northern part of the country also includes Upper Tonkin, with its small villages and its Hmong, Dai, Thai and Dao ethnic minorities. A setting of terraced rice fields where local crops thrive, stretching from Nghia Lo to Duong Lam, passing through Mu Cang Chai, Than Uyen and Sapa.
