Halong Bay (World Heritage Site)
Halong Bay is a World Heritage Site in northern Vietnam, a spectacular spot where approximately 3,000 strangely shaped rocks float in the emerald green sea. It is characterized by its unique landscape created by years of erosion, and is also known as the "Guilin of the Sea." Strangely shaped rocks such as Elephant Rock and Fighting Cock Rock, as well as limestone caves, are scattered throughout the bay, and activities such as cruises and kayaking are also popular. It was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994, and attracts tourists from all over the world.
