TMT-05:Hoa
Lu - Tam Coc - Kenh ga
(One
day/Private tour - Everyday)
Nearly
one thousand years ago, this place used to be the Capital of Grand Viet
ruled by Dinh and Le Dynasty. In spite of many feudal and historical
conflicts, Hoalu still preserved its heritages with many temples and
pagodas. Your one day tour will be filled with legend and myth.
Additionally, one thing that make this tour the most exiting is the boat
trip through winding stream to visit Tam Coc (three grottoes) - regarded
as "inland Halong Bay". Kenh Ga ( Chicken canal) apparently
gets its name from the number of wild chickens that usded to live in the
erea. Kenh Ga is essentially a floating village on the Hoang Long river,
with just a few permanent buildings on the riverbanks. Another
interesting thing you can see in Kenh Ga is people row boats with their
feet, learning back and watching the world go by.
