Ninh Binh

Situated at the Red River Delta’s southern end is Ninh Binh, a place blessed with the diverse topography of coastal and mountainous areas. It can easily be said that this province, with its relatively small size, holds all the scenic quintessence of the entire Vietnam. But that’s not all. Ninh Binh represents your typical rural villages in the country’s north, with vast and green paddy fields, expansive mountains and a poetic river flowing into the horizon.
The history of Ninh Binh is also deserving of mention as Vietnam’s ancient capital during the tenth century, which today holds relics reflective of the province’s development and history over the last one thousand years. When one thinks of Ninh Binh, the image of delicious dishes made from goat meat, dried rice, eel vermicelli and Kim Son wine immediately come to mind. A haven for cultural explorers on holidays to Northern Vietnam, what Ninh Binh lacks in nightlife it makes up for with its many ancient vestiges.
