Some 1,600 islands, thick with greenery, form a maze of channels in the azure waters off northeastern Vietnam. Although people have lived in the region of Ha Long Bay for thousands of years, most of the islands remain uninhabited. But these coves and natural towers are rich with wildlife. For centuries, this spectacular seascape has inspired wonder.
The name Ha Long, Vietnamese for “descending dragon,” is reflected in a legend: Once, when the Viet people faced invasion, a dragon flew down from heaven to their defense. The creature sprayed not only fire, but also jewels that became the green archipelago.
The scientific explanation for the rock formations, known as karst, is also amazing. For millions of years, seashells and sediments fell to an ancient seafloor, forming solid rock. Tectonic activity raised the resulting limestone above water. Rainfall and rivers dissolved exposed rock, and carved valleys that flooded after the last ice age, creating this rare example of a karst field at sea.
Features include lakes and caves through the islands, and notches and tunnels where seawater has worn at the pillars' foundations. The fantastic landscape also continues into two adjacent national parks, on Cat Ba Island and Bai Tu Long Bay.
You can go kayaking, caving, or even take a ride in a seaplane to experience the grandeur of these enchanting tropical islands.

I think no.1 most diverse, beautiful and cheapest country in the world should be Vietnam because of these reasons: Vietnam is just a small countries but it has many records.
the deepest gorge in SEA (Hẻm Tu Sản), the longest lava tube cave in SEA (Hang C7), most beautiful bay in the world (Ha Long Bay), steepest natural waterslide in probably the world (Tà Ngào waterslide)
Our country, our pride. Viet Nam . Thank you
Vietnam looks amazing, would love to travel there one day
hello ( hế lô mấy cưng ) :)
@@LinhNguyen-vw2lm ohn.your country is so beautiful. From another planet. :)
BUT THE BRITISH THOUGHT THEY DID! ;-D @@nonyabidness5454 WHAT YOU THINK?????????
Very sad the people throwing garbage everywhere.
As a Vietnamese and English learner, I love how the speaker uses literary words to arouse the august and majestic seascape of Ha Long Bay as authentic as it would be. Love Ha Long Bay! Love Vietnam!
bác học tiếng anh ở đâu mà viết hay thế
this is the beauty of English, my friend.
Been there last month.. Amazing place.. Love from Malaysia
That's great but where have you stayed I am also thinking of going.
This place is truly amazing. Had the pleasure of visiting in 2016
Happy to hear you got to see Ha Long Bay in person! If you'd like to learn more, you can read on here: on.natgeo.com/2PI2UI9

I just arrived in Ha Long Bay 2 days ago. Ha Long Bay is one of the most beautiful and unique world natural heritages.
I'm come from Vietnam and I very proud of nature my country
Really
This authentic place is a dreamed setting for wonderful holidays.
Absolutely breathtaking to look at, even more so experiencing it yourself! There seems to be so much natural surroundings to explore 😍 Worth definitely a visit one day. Thanks for sharing National Geographic.
Is there like a hotel?, or do you camp there it’s a very pretty place.
You usually stay overnight on a boat of some kind

@@Chihuahualover420 makes sense...
Really? lol when I went there it was so polluted and trash all in the ocean every where you looked. Pretty but everyone acts like it isn’t there
Proud of my country, Vietnam. The landscape is spectacular.
I'm from Viet Nam n i live in Ha Long City🇻🇳 tks so much!!!!
That's one of my Bucket List, and I definitly want to go there! ❤️🇻🇳
Paradise on earth 🌍
One of the most beautiful destinations. So serene.
So beautiful, I would love to live there. I love all of Southeast Asia.
Earth is incredible!
@Dbirdey Capozzie: Earth yes, people unfortunately no.
I live in VietNam but I ever didn't reach there. I also watch this place on yt as you...so sad :
this is an awsome place to go in for a vacation and its amazing that it has never been destroyed and its natural features just makes it looks even more amazing wow.
Ha Long Bay is the best. I have been in Ha Long Bay three times already. Just a beautiful location.
Que lindo lugar senhor!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
@(Support AliRaya and 🇵🇸) Chad here in Brazil we don't want terrorists
Lovely I am in love with this place wish to visit it someday..
Vietnam a friendly and beautiful country.
Well I’m glad that I’m revisiting Vietnam next year :3
@Vietnam Travel - Vietnam Escape Tours yes, I did go in the summer of 2018! We stayed in my aunts house in Saigon and visited my mom and dad’s hometown. It was a wonderful experience, I’ve been thinking of asking my family about going again next summer.
Ha Long Bay is the most beautiful place I have ever visted. It is definitely worth a trip.
Thank you. I from Vietnam🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳
Vietnam the true superpower of Asia.
Amzing Halong, Vietnam. One of 7 wonders of the world. we are proud of HLong.
Beautiful nature, beautiful country.
My Country:Vietnam.Thank for National Geographic have a beautiful bay in Vietnam
The beauty of this locality is surreal, even unearthly. I really do understand why the legend about its formation arose. A prosaic explanation seems inadequate. I have to say a karst topography in the sea is rather exotic! Lovely video.
Que beleza ...quando vemos este esplendor e sem mão humana em que a rainha é a natureza!! Até as pedras vivem ...que vídeo com um filtro maravilhoso recortando o céu e o mar..Que quietude extrema conseguimos ouvir o voo das aves e o ascender da lua...tanta ilha...será que nos não poderíamos ser uma ilha também? Num instante parece que estamos numa dimensão paralela onde o tempo estancou e inalamos um cheiro a verde distante! É um local mágico e a lenda do dragao é de pasmar !
vinh hạ long tuyệt đẹp. điểm đến di lịch tuyệt vời
Spectacular views absolutely stunning
Beautiful
Woooooow
Soubhana Allah
Beautiful! Thank you so much. 🍀
wow
I went there on a short cruise, it’s great. I mean you can look at pictures and video all day but unless you’re there you won’t get the full experience.
Thank you because you introduce Viet Nam's pride where I'm from
Ha long bay is even more beautiful in person ☺️
I just hope no one touches these precious islands, these should be preserved.
Those Islands look amazing! I loved it!
Absolutely breathtaking.
Thank You.

Vietnam. I'm proud of you🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳. Mãi yêu❤❤
Been there a couple of years ago. Breathtaking views. Only problem, people and tourists throw a lot of trash into the water. I hope they can find a way to preserve it or it will be gone for our children.
true. I dont mean to blame Chinese people but since they flooded into our country via free tour, they literally ruined every famous sight they set foot to, espcially Ha Long Bay, Da Nang and Nha Trang
This looks like Paradise Vietnam beautiful people beautiful county of nature nature lies here it hold the emerald
Amazing escenery!💖
thanks for your amazing information, it's help us to do our english homework
from Viet Nam by the way =))
Vãi
Beautiful place.
Việt nam đất nước tôi 🇻🇳🇻🇳🇻🇳
So so beautiful Vietnam.
Proud of Vietnam - my country
Looks beautiful I would love to visit there sometime
Look I just want to be honest this is my personal preference ok. I love everything in the videos done by national geographic EXCEPT the narrator's nosy voice. It just breaks the rythm, the awe the combined sounds and images try to convey.
She sounds like Alesandra Ocasio Corrrrtez
It’s beautiful I’ll be visiting in a month! Ha Long Bay reminds me of Langkawi Malaysia
Ha long bay looks great in Civilization VI
It’s so much better by seaplane, quite a price for a 1 hour flight but that 15 minute scenic flight is simply outstanding.
Vietnam always beautiful.
Can I have a video please? Will write source. Thank you very much
Love viet xo 😁😻🥰😏✌🏿
Wow, nice video, Halong Bay is one of the most beautiful sightseeing in Vietnam

Guys, thank you for loving Vietnam
Spectacular
I visited Vietnam and found a very interesting Fish recipe and a person to make me travel whole vietnam
Vietnam very nice country
Ha Long Bay is one of the best choices which can perfectly satisfy tourists' travel apetites when travelling to Southeast Asia, especially to Vietnam. I believe that the awe-inspiring views of show-stopping ancient islands would be an outsized and unforgettable experience for all tourists who ever visited the bay where dragon descended.
Thank you so much ^^
So cute!
Amazing video!Thanks lot for nice Sharing!
Stay safe and peaceful my dear friend 🌷🌹💌
thank you!
thank you
Que belleza algún día iré...
As a Vietnamese, i will be back there in Dec (after 20 years), cant wiat. Hope we can keep the place clean and pristine though, tourism always has the negative side - trash.
I love Vietnam

Welcome to Cat Ba island
Lan Ha bay in Cat Ba island has been voted as one of the most beautiful bay in the world.
From Cat Ba island, you also have a chance to visit the less touristic area of Ha Long bay.
Don't miss it.
This was a good map on Blood Wake, good times
