Cao Bang

Journey from Hanoi’s cultural heart to Vietnam’s untamed Northeast — where misty lakes, hidden caves, and thundering waterfalls meet the soulful spirit of ethnic highlands, from haunting Then songs to the timeless charm of Khui Ky’s stone village

• Trace the soul of Hanoi through its timeless landmarks — from the stately Temple of Literature and Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum to the vibrant maze of the Old Quarter.
• Savor the spirit of the capital with street-side Bún Chả, delicate Bánh Cuốn, and a glass of fresh draft beer poured with laughter.
• Wander into the emerald hills of Thai Nguyen, where the scent of Tan Cuong tea fills the air and the Tay people welcome you into stilt homes with warm smiles and haunting Then melodies.
• Drift across the glassy waters of Ba Be Lake, glide through Puong Cave, and feel the quiet power of Dau Dang Waterfall — where limestone cliffs and jungle echoes stir the senses.
• Journey north to Cao Bang, where nature unfolds in grandeur at Ban Gioc Waterfall and Nguom Ngao Cave — then pause in Khui Ky Stone Village, a hidden gem of ancient stone houses, cobbled paths, and the enduring grace of Tay culture by the river’s edge.
