The symbol of Ha Long Bay - Couple's Rock (Fighting Cock Rock)
Two famous rocks named after Vietnamese legends.
According to legend, a married couple bravely fought a monster from the sea that once frightened the residents and drove it away. Later, when they died here, their bodies were transformed into two large rocks, which have since been called the Married Couple Rocks and are said to have become symbols of Halong Bay. The couple's rock is also considered a symbol of love and loyalty, and is a popular photo spot for many tourists.
Incense Burner Rock
This is a symbolic rock that is also depicted on Vietnam's 200,000 dong banknote. Its name comes from its resemblance to the shape of an incense burner, and its appearance standing alone on the sea is impressive. You can see it up close from the boat, and it stands out among the fantastic scenery.
Exploring BA HANG Cave by sea kayak or bamboo boat
It means "three caves" and is a series of three small caves that can only be passed through at low tide. The ceiling inside the cave is low, and the experience of passing through it quietly by boat is appealing. It feels like entering a secret cove.
Located near Minakami Village, you may get a glimpse of village life and fishing.

Thien Cung Cave
Once you get off the boat, we will guide you inside the limestone cave.
Thien Cung Cave is home to beautiful stalactites that have grown over tens of thousands of years.
