Ha Long Bay
Hạ Long Bay is a marine–island karst landscape in Quảng Ninh, notable for limestone towers rising from the water and visited mainly by boat on set itineraries; whether a boat can leave the pier depends on the weather that day.

The story
Old Stone, New Passage
Imagine a boat leaving shore as limestone towers rise from the bay ahead. They first formed on land before the sea moved in; waves and seawater continued to reshape their edges, bringing karst landforms and coastal landforms together in one landscape in Quang Ninh.
