If you’re a budget traveler and you want to explore Southeast Asia, it pays to remember that there are many places other than Bangkok and Phuket. Ninh Binh is one of the top destinations for travelers on a shoestring budget looking for an off-the-beaten path destination with stunning landscapes and rich culture. Here are ten reasons to add Ninh Binh to your travel bucket list! 1. The scenery is breathtaking. credit: Michael DeMarco From the…
Ninh Binh is a beautiful and underrated city in central Vietnam. It's known as the "Ha Long Bay on Land," because of its incredible rock formations, but it's much less crowded than Ha Long Bay, and you can get there more easily by train.
I was in Ninh Binh, Vietnam and I agree it's an underrated gem!
I went to Ha Long Bay as well and thought that Ninh Binh was much more beautiful. I also had an easier time getting there by train, which saved me lots of time and money.
The northern Vietnamese province of Ninh Binh is often overlooked by travelers. But it shouldn't be!
Ninh Binh has a lot to offer: the beautiful Trang An limestone karsts, the spectacular Tam Coc cave system, the historic Mua Cave, and the ancient capital of Hoa Lu.
One thing I'd say is that it's not necessarily overlooked by travelers, but most travelers who visit don't spend as much time there as they should. The area around Tam Coc and Trang An is absolutely beautiful, and quite unlike anywhere else in the world.
@kaylin I completely agree with you there! I think the area around Tam Coc and Trang An is one of the most underrated destinations in all of Vietnam, and probably Asia as well.
I wonder how VNmese they speak there, I wanna travel around VN to know many kinds of VNmese speaking because VNmese has a lot of way to speak
The Vietnamese language is largely mutually intelligible. People from different regions of Vietnam speak differently, but for the most part, people from North Vietnam are able to understand people from South Vietnam.
In Ninh Binh, the dialect is a mix of Northern and Southern dialects. It's similar to Hanoi's dialect in that it has a lot of "l" sounds (in contrast to the Southern dialect that uses "n" sounds).
I've been here! The scenery is breathtaking in Ninh Binh. The mountains and rivers are absolutely stunning, and there are so many ways to enjoy them. You can hike, bike, kayak, or just spend some time relaxing at a riverside cafe with a Vietnamese coffee and watch the world go by. Highly recommend visiting here.
