Second stay after a short break to Ha Long Bay. Excellent stay as before. I am unable to name everyone but all the staff from bell boy to house keeping were extremely obliging. Always acknowledged our presence with greetings and smiles which we reciprocated. What stands out is the care they took of us. This time special mention to Eileen on check out who made sure we were safely picked up by our Grab driver to the airport, and thanks for the parting gift. This hotel may not be the cheapest in town but you get what you pay for and the location was excellent for a tourist and more so for a first time visitor to Hanoi like we were. Please also see my previous review for the first part of our stay.

Gateway to the King Dinh Tien Hoang Temple.

We spent a day in Hoa Lu District, Ninh Binh Province, the old capital of Vietnam between the 10th and 11th century. They described this province as the Ha Long Bay in land, and it actually is! The province is surrounded by mountains and hills. While the scenery reminded me of New Zealand, Ninh Binh still has its unique character that is incomparable.

Bích Động Pagoda, within the Ninh Binh province of Vietnam consists of three layered pagodas, each used as Buddhist shrines. The air is thick with incense and hushed speech, a complement to the verdant cliffside and rice-terraced countryside that surround. I arrived at the site in the early morning, cutting my motorbike to walk across the stone bridge through the pagoda gate. As I was taking my first steps, however, two stray dogs pushed past me, as if assuming positions of welcome. They walked ahead of me, looking back from time to time to make sure I was following course. Vietnam is surreal in many ways and here exemplifies one of those times, standing four-legged before the ancient architecture.
