The emerald green waters of the Gulf of Tonkin in north-eastern Vietnam are sprinkled with awe-inspiring limestone formations covered by rainforest.
Legend says that when the country had to fight against invaders a dragon descended to the sea (Ha Long translates as “descending dragon”) and scattered emeralds from its mouth to form a defensive wall. Over thousands of years the wall crumbled and turned into the majestic pillars of different shapes and sizes that we see today.
Comprising 1600 islands and islets, most of which are uninhabited, the karst landforms are characterised by coastal erosional features including grottoes and arches.
