Halong Bay

One of the most iconic images of northern Vietnam is Halong Bay. Limestone mountains rise out of the turquoise waters, shadowing the floating fishing villages and cruising boats of the bay. This time of year, the bay is cloaked in semi-permanent fog, making the bay a calm, eerie place. It’s hard to tell exactly when a mountain will emerge, looming out of the mists. There is no wind, and the fog muffles any sounds from the other boats.
