Halong Bay Cruise
Towering limestone pillars and tiny
islets topped by forest rise from the emerald waters of the Gulf of
Tonkin. Halong translates as 'where the dragon descends into the sea'
and legend tells that this mystical seascape was created when a great
mountain dragon charged towards the coast, its flailing tail gouging out
valleys and crevasses
