One day with Vietnam's "Great Wall"

Come to Mua Cave (Dancing Cave) in Ninh Binh province, you can really taste the raw nature beauty.

Down a sleepy road between rice paddies, this cave is not terribly impressive, but there are panoramic views from the peak above. Mua Cave inlcudes in Trang An (Ninh Binh) tourist complex. According to UNESCO, the Trang An Complex displays signs of human activity from more than 30,000 years ago. From here, boat after boat set out to explore a maze of 250-million-year-old limestone karst towers and waterways, which covers over 6,000 hectares (14,800 acres).
