Mua Cave / Hang Mua

Mua Cave is one of the key visiting spots in Trang An ( Halong Bay on the land) in the Ninh Binh province in Vietnam.  It is my most favourite place during my trip in Vietnam. The views up the 500 steps are stunning.  The sights over Tam Coc and the landscape of Ninh Binh are gorgeous. Green fields, river and mountains compose harmony and beauty. Everyone wants to stay longer. We joined a tour to Trang An. Sampan ride along the river with  spectacular  limestone karst  peaks was amazing. It is the key offer provided by various tour companies.

It is an awesome experience to flow through the various spots of the great nature along with caves, temples and the other colourful boats. Trang An is also called the Halong Bay of the land. It is about 150 kilometres from the famous bay. Hundreds of islands form a natural wonder is another  impressive landscape but much less known.
