Halong bay is designated twice by UNESCO as a World Heritage. The 7th installation of King Kong series had been eventually filmed in Halong Bay after a long road since the first foreign film “Indochine” made in the region and gained an Oscar in 1992. It is said that even during the fierce battles of King Kong, Halong has been gloriously shown as a pearl of the Tonkin Gulf and to be must-visit attraction in every tour to Vietnam.

Nowhere else on earth, even vulcanic islands are comparable with the expanse and distinctiveness of this bay, where you are surely get overwhelmed from the first sight of uncountable scattered rocky islets, with wind and wave-eroded grottoes. A little reminiscence of the fjords in Norway or the sea in Phu Ket, Halong with its rocks and islets stretches over 1,500 sq. km will enable all kinds of sea activities. You can choose to relax leisurely for sunbathing, swimming, kayaking, visiting pearl or shell-fish farms or to visit fishman’s villages. If you love adrenalin-inducing sports, you can extend the trip for rock-climbing and bouldering at tough mountains in Cat Ba island nearby.

During the last few years, in order to respond to speedy development of travel services, Halong has also become an epicenter of strong activities for ecologists and eco-activists. Responsible and Educational tour designers like Threelanders are trying hard to support eco project and maintain sustainable development for Halong against its fast growth.
