Created over millions of years, tectonic forces slowly thrust the limestone above the water-line. During this process waves lapping against the stone carved out a number of vast, striking caverns, as well as other geologically interesting formations, such as tunnel caves and uniquely shaped massifs.
Almost all islands of Halong Bay are rocky, and there is a countless number of caves and grottos of all sizes and shapes, filled with small waterfalls, stalactites and stalagmites. Some of the caves became a tourist attraction. Lit up with colorful lights, they look like fairy tale underground castles.
Ha Long Bay has an area of around 1,553 km2, including 1,960–2,000 islets, most of which are limestone. The core of the bay has an area of 334 km2 with a high density of 775 islets. The limestone in this bay has gone through 500 million years of formation in different conditions and environments. The evolution of the karst in this bay has taken 20 million years under the impact of the tropical wet climate. The geo-diversity of the environment in the area has created biodiversity, including a tropical evergreen biosystem, oceanic and sea shore biosystem. Ha Long Bay is home to 14 endemic floral species and 60 endemic faunal species.

Local people have a very colorful story about creation of the bay. It is told that once upon a time, when ancestors fought with the Chinese, Gods sent dragons to help Vietnamese warriors. Trying to make a barrier, these fearsome creatures spitted precious stones that turned into islands. These islands created a wall that protected Vietnamese people from their aggressors. Dragons liked the rocky islands and decided to leave them behind after the war. Vietnamese named the place, where Mother Dragon landed, Ha-Long, which means “a place where the dragon descended into the sea”.
This unique UNESCO World Heritage Site is a popular place for tourists but it is good to know that large parts of Ha Long Bay are officially protected from development. The islands vary greatly in size and shape as well as structure.
Visitors should allow a few days to explore this magical bay as its attractions are extremely numerous.

Cat Ba is full of the usual tourist scenario; hotels, restaurants, and bars; still Cat Ba’s locals have carried on doing exactly what their ancestors did for generations before – fishing.

Dongshan Lake Park beauty emerges from its simple and natural decoration

The park is no doubt an ideal place for entertainment for the visitors in a prosperous city. Welcome to Guangdong for Guangzhou Fair, HRC is pleased to offer great service in China tour guide or Indochina tour guide for you.
The name Dongshan comes from a mountain in Xiaodongyuan, north of Guangzhou City at ancient times. This mountain was opposite to the Xi shan (Mountain West ) in northwest of Liuhua Lake and the Beishan (Mountain North) (Mountain Yuexiu) in the north of the city, so it got the name Dongshan (Mountain East). Dongshan Lake is called Donghu for short, corresponding to Xihu in Yaozhou. Prior to 1958, the lake was not well maintained, but in 1959, efforts were made to rehabilitate the lake in order to open it to the public. The Park beauty emerges from its simple and natural decoration. In the middle of the lake, there are 2 islands that can be reached by any of five different bridges. One of the best times of the year to visit Dongshan is the spring when all the flowers are in bloom. The Five Arch Bridge makes visitors feel the openness and quietness in the depth of the suburbs.

The wetlands are known as the kidney of the earth with the birds inhabiting there. The Dongshan Lake Park makes efforts to create a wetland environment. In recent years, the Dongshan Lake Park has removed the walls and invested 10 million in its renovation. The park is extended from the downtown area to the Pearl River bank. The management authority has planted lotus in the south and reeds and arrowhead beside the lotus. When the plants are combined with the original lake, a wetland is in place. This small wetland has attracted birds.
In addition to birds, the five little ducks swimming on the lake also bring a lot of joy to the children. These ducks are raised by the park. “It is mainly to create the environment. We plant lotus and the snail will eat the lotus roots. And we raised ducks, duck will eat snails. That’s how we get this ecological balance.”

Meanwhile, Gulangyu also enjoys the good reputation of “Garden on the Sea”, because it is delightful in all seasons, characterised by singing birds and fragrant flowers. Main attractions include Sunlight Rock, Shuzhuang Garden, Yu Park, Bright Moon Garden and Museum.
Gulangyu is unique in China as a “traffic-free island”. It is connected to the main island of Xiamen only by ferry. Neither cars nor bicycles are allowed, thus providing an alternative to the busier Xiamen Island across the river, although the recent introduction of electric tourist buggies may be damaging the island’s charm. Freight is pulled on wheeled buggies up the often steep lanes by strong teams of men.

Gulangyu Island has about 20,000 permanent residents, all of whom enjoy a comfortable, relaxing life. Only electric-powered vehicles are permitted on the island, so the environment is free from the noise and pollution of combustion engines. Breathing the clean air, appreciating the ever-present green trees and lovely flowers, anyone here can feel like they are in heaven. With classical and romantic European-style architecture, the island truly deserves to be called the’Architecture Museum’. It is also known as the ‘Cradle of Musicians’ and ‘Island of Music’ because of its reputation for music appreciation.
