Tam Coc - Bich Dong

Bich Dong is located in the Ngu Nhac
Son mountain range in Ninh Hai
Commune, Hoa Lu District, Ninh Binh
Province. In 1773, Nguyen Nhiem
(father of the great poet Nguyen Du)
visited the cave. The mountain, cave,
river, rice fields and sky in this place
are covered with a breath-taking
green color, thus he gave the cave
a very beautiful and romantic name
“Bich Dong”. The beautiful scenery of
Bich Dong is called “The second most
beautiful cave in Vietnam.” From Bich
Dong, tourists can continue by boat
to visit Tam Coc. Tam Coc means
three caves: First Cave, Second Cave
and Third Cave. When the boat goes
into the three caves, tourists will feel
cool. Stalactites from the cave ceiling
hang down unevenly and sparkly
like magical pearls and gems.
