Located 100 km from Hanoi, Ninh Binh has risen as a favourite tourist spot for young people in recent years thanks to its natural beauty and unique architecture
There are many scenic spots in Ninh Binh province Photo Vietnamplus
Mua Cave or Hang Mua
Mua Cave is located at the foot of Mua Mountain. Although it's not as famous as many other scenic spots in Ninh Binh, the cave is much-loved due to the beautiful natural scenery and it being much quieter than other places.
Hang Mua means “dancing cave” as it is where the Tran king would enjoy dancing and singing shows performed in this cave. Photo Vietnamplus

Hang Mua is like a “miniature Great Wall” with nearly 500 steps up the mountains to conquer. It is a hard trek up with many uneven limestone steps, especially at the top.
Care must be taken on the steep steps. For wonderful panoramic photos of the golden rice fields and limestone monntains, it is best to arrange your trip to Ninh Binh and the Mua cave between late May and early June. Sometimes early in May when the rice is getting ripe, you can see the fields changing from green to yellow.
