In Autumn, Let’s Come To Thung Nham To Discover Green Oasis

Say about eco-tourism, perhaps Ninh Binh Province is one of the most famous places to visit in Northern Vietnam with the top tourist destinations Trang An Complex Site, Bai Dinhpagoda and Tam Coc. However, in recent years, Ninh Binh has also become well-known for another attraction Thung Nham - an area abundant in natural beauty making Ninh Binh become wonderful and be a must-see place in Northern Vietnam.

Lying among the mountains of Hoa Lu, Viet Nam’s ancient capital, Thung Nham is blessed with all of the striking natural landscapes found in Ninh Binh. Visitors have the chance to experience ecotourism with numerous beautiful lakes, ancient primary forests and mysterious caves.

It can be said that Thung Nham is wonderful in all four seasons, but its beauty really comes into its own in autumn, when temperatures cool and a thin layer of mist embraces the whole area, lending a fragile beauty to this poetic land. When autumn comes, the birds return to their nests for the night somewhat earlier. Bird spotting trips take visitors gliding through shrubs on a wooden boat on the lake around 5pm to the bird valley, where they are afforded arresting views of the birds roosting. Interestingly, the spectacle of birds returning home whitens the primary forests. The area is home to various species of birds, including two very rare species, flamingo and phoenix, both listed as endangered.

Nowadays, Thung Nham is becoming popular as a destination for honeymooners and as a romantic getaway, with charming individual bungalows and newly-established resorts attracting couples.

In fact, Thung Nham has a lot more to showcase. It is truly an ideal place for a weekend break for enjoying the peace of nature and sampling delicious regional cuisine and Ninh Binh specialties such as goat meat and burnt rice.

Although Thung Nham is still a little-known place, do not hesitate to plan a visit to Thung Nham. In fact, thanks to this little-known characteristic, it retains a peaceful, untouched atmosphere and tourists can relax and enjoy the place, without suffering the crowds and noise that blight many popular tourist destinations.
