Established in 1962, Cuc Phuong is the oldest national park in Vietnam. Located only 140km southwest of Hanoi and nestled between the provinces of Ninh Binh, Hoa Binh and Thanh Hoa, Cuc Phuong boasts engaging cultural and wildlife heritage and enchanting scenery. Magnificent limestone mountains rise up majestically from the green rice-terraces and traditional stilt houses of the Muong hill-tribe.

Ninh Binh is a place you should not skip in a travel to North Vietnam. The first destination of the trip is the Cuc Phuong National Park, which is home to various fauna and flora. The next interesting place to admire is Tam Coc cave to explore the natural beauty and the trip concludes with the visit to Hoa Lu, formerly known as the capital of Vietnam
