Hoa Binh is a province in northern Vietnam, covering a natural area of about 4,600 square kilometers. It is situated at the gateway to the northwest region of Vietnam, approximately 76 kilometers from the capital city of Hanoi.
Due to its hilly and mountainous terrain, Hoa Binh possesses a rich and diverse natural tourism resource, including rivers, lakes, mineral springs, nature reserves, and national parks. Notably, Hoa Binh Lake, the Kim Boi mineral spring tourist area, the Thac Bo Cave, and the pristine tropical forest of Pu Nooc are among the prominent attractions.
Moreover, being a mountainous province in the Northwest with six main ethnic groups (Muong, Kinh, Thai, Tay, Dao, H’Mong), with the Muong ethnic group being the majority, Hoa Binh travel reflects the cultural diversity of a multi-ethnic land with significant humanistic values. This region is considered the cradle of Muong culture, featuring numerous undiscovered wonders. Hoa Binh is also known as the birthplace of the “Hoa Binh Culture”, a unique prehistoric culture that captivates the world with a dense system of archaeological sites dating back from approximately 18,000 to 7,500 years ago, during the Old Stone Age.
Historical relics, architectural structures, traditional crafts, unique customs, and festivals, along with delicious and distinctive Hoa Binh cuisine, collectively contribute to a colorful cultural tapestry that captivates distant travelers who come to experience and explore.
