Traveling Ninh Binh - North Vietnam Adventures Today

-


Traveling North Vietnam can be an intimidating thing to some, especially to all the American Viet kieus, but I highly recommend visiting neighboring cities from Hanoi, such as Ninh Binh.
To get to Ninh Binh from Hanoi, just go to the Hanoi Bus Station and take a bus south to Ninh Binh, which is about three hours or so away. Then you can find a taxi and go to your hotel, which Ninh Binh is full of now. This is my third return trip to Ninh Binh and it still has a lot of tourist places of interests I haven't been able to see. In fact, this city is one of my favorites in all of North Vietnam. The scenery, the food, the landscape, and the experiences are plentiful here. You can enjoy spectacular limestone mountains at Tam Coc, sample some mountain goat meat, visit the Hang Mua, numerous caves, temples, ancient capital emperor homes, stone churches, and so much more from this special city that is definitely worth a visit.

The goat meat restaurant is located across from the Ninh Binh Citadel or emperor's compound.

Vietnam shares three international border crossings with Cambodia at the following points: Moc Bai (Vietnam) to Bavet (Cambodia) is the longest established border crossing which is used on the main bus route between HCMC and Phnom Penh. Vinh Xuong (Vietnam) to Kaam Samnor (Cambodia) is a popular crossing amongst independent travellers. Many take a fast ferry boat from Chau Doc in the Mekong Delta as far as Phnom Penh. Tinh Bien (Vietnam) to Phnom Den (Cambodia) near Chau Doc gives access to southern Cambodia. It is a land crossing mainly used by locals and there’s little in the way of tansport at either side of the border (see our story below). Ha Tien (Vietnam) is just 8km from the Cambodian border but it is strictly for locals. Foreigners are not allowed to cross here. If you want to discover the country of Angkor Wat , the world’s largest religious building and Buddhism that is practiced by 96% of the population, do not hesitate to take a trip from Vietnam to Ca
