One of the best places in Quang Ninh that is not known to international visitors
is Binh Lieu. Located in the eastern part of Quang Ninh province and bordered
with China, Binh Lieu is home to ethnic groups such as Tay, San, Chi and Dao and
endowed with many stunning landscapes as well as attractive cultural features.
The district is likened to ‘Sapa’ in
northern Lao Cai province with similar
climate, landscapes and culture of ethnic minority groups. There is no high-end
tourism services but Binh Lieu will comfort travelers by its own wild beauty and
peaceful scenery.
Tourists can visit tourist sites such as Luc Na communal house, Khe Van
waterfall, Khe Thien waterfall, Mooc A waterfall, border roads, etc. They can
also trek up mountains to admire various wild flowers and fruits, enjoy the
beauty of immense terraced rice fields and learn more about the daily life of
ethnic people living in stilt houses scattered around mounts and hills.
In addition, listening to the traditional singing of Soong Co and Then performed
by the Tay ethnic people is regarded as a really special experience during the
time tourists stay in Binh Lieu. Binh Lieu also has a border gate market where
tourists can shop for some souvenirs, garments and food. |
