Halong Bay

You may think if you look int: this picture that is like a mythical legends of ' thousand and one nights', but think that this magnificent painting is a true picture of a charming places on our planet that we don't know?!

These amazing rocky islands are just a part of the thousands of small islands located in the "Halong Bay" in Vietnam.

Which you will learn through this photographed trip :



This amazing place is located in the province of Quang Ninh in the north-east of Vietnam, covers an area of 1553 square kilometers , that icnlude 1960  small island!

Surprisingly, these islands are not distributed regularly on Halong Bay, but 775 of them concentrated in the middle of the Gulf (an area of 334 km² only), what gave it this magical scenes that we see.

The reason for the existence of these rocks in that amazing way, they are two explanations, let's start Boktherhma worse:

The locals habitants  say that in thousands of years ago, when the Chinese came to  occupate Vietnam,t4 he Vietnamese emperor sent a  serious dragon to help the Vietnamese to cope with the Chinese,so this dragon jet thousands of pearls (do the tally from the flames, it seems!), which turned to rocks ,to prevent the Chinese from the progress!

The second explanation is a scientific explanation which says that the islands due to  a scientific phenomenon called karst, where the limestone areas turned to this as a result of exposure to different geological effects over the past 500 million years! (I think the easiest theory is the first one 'Dragon' :D )

Another interesting thing is that many of these islands are hollow from the within! Therefore,they contain a network of caves make it a wonderful tourist places!

In addition ,Halong Bay is home to 14 kinds of flowers, and 60 kinds of animals!

As a result,Halong Bay is considered by the UNESCO in list of the World human Heritage .

The region has a tropical maritime climate of adorable, and temperatures ranging between 15-25 degrees Celsius, so Halong Bay has become one of the most attractive tourist destinations in the world.
